Today I am writing to you, thinking about all of our lovely memories we have had in Salem as a wonderful married couple. I am writing this letter to you because I wanted to day my last few words to you before you are hanged. How did everything go from having a lovely life to, you being sentence to death because you confessed about being in contact with the devil? Also, I feel this is completely my fault, and I am the breakdown of our family. I have a lot of regrets from our marriage that I caused. I let Abigail get the best of me, and it ruined our marriage and now I am not going to have a husband anymore because you are going to die. I really regret our fight in our house after you got home. I remember
In the book “mama might be better off dead” written by Laurie Kaye Abraham, tells a story of Jackie Banes and her family, and their struggles to hold the family’s health together. Her grandmother Mrs. Cora Jackson, who pretty much raised her, has suffered the amputation of one leg because of uncontrolled diabetes.

This is your father Aaron Rooplal. I know it would be years until it’s time for the both of you to read this letter. First, I want to apologize for being away from you so long. I know this isn't fair but I’m away for this business project in Japan just so that I’m able to provide a financially stable lifestyle for you and your superb mom who has been struggling so much on her own to take care of you both. This business project will be done before no time and I promise to come back with so many gifts for you both and make up for all the lost time.
I am ecstatic to know that you are alive and well. It feels like it has been an eternity since you were born 23 years ago in our very own home in England. I still remember the day that I had to leave you, tears swelling up in my eyes, I left when you were only at the age of 8! It killed me to leave you, knowing I would probably never see you or your mother's face ever again. But here we are, communicating by letter from distant colonies in the new world. At least I can sigh of relief knowing that you are in the same country as me. Maybe someday we will be able to see each other. Until then, I do know that you and I have plenty of work to do developing our isolated distant colonies. To this day I still dream of you, me and your own mother meeting
I die tonight. It has been so determined by those who think I deserve it. God only knows I feel myself entirely innocent of the charge. I have only sought to educate the negro. I little thought when leaving you that we should thus part forever so distant from each other. But God's will be done. He will be to you a husband better than I have been, and a father to our six little ones. . . .
Father are you out there, This is your daughter Erika Neumen I survived the holocaust. The last time I saw you were in the ghettos. I miss you dearly and can't stop thinking about you.
I hope this letter finds you well.. I’ve been gone for many months and have finally found time to write you. My journey to California was not an easy one. After selling out of Pennsylvania, myself and a few others hoping to find gold paid a bit more money, resulting in a shorter trip. After sailing and reaching Panama, we reached the treacherous Panama Isthmus. We took a dreadful trek through the dense, mosquito-ridden jungle. If it had not been for your tips from earlier on in my life, I would not have known how to keep safe and I may have died! Some, however, were not as fortunate as I. Over half of the people that entered the jungle did not reach the other side. I was fortunate enough to survive, and it’s all thanks to
Mommie Dearest was a biography by Christina Crawford. In the book and movie, it talked and showed the abuse that she endured through her childhood. Joan Crawford was the adopted mother to Christina and other children who were adopted. During the time of Christina living with her mother, in that time she noticed Joan suffered from various psychosocial factors. Those factors affected Joan’s ability to have a meaningful relationship with other people. Most of everything that we see in the movie is based off of what Christina has experienced while she was living with her mother. Although the scenes that you see in the movie are actual disorders that Joan had you also have to remember that the media and films can justify truths or can bend it in negative and positive ways.
In the story there are a lot of surprises. The most surprising part of the story for me would be when Eulinda found her brother dead. After the Civil War ended the prison let out all of the prisoners and allowed them to look for their family/ friends. With the help of her friend Clara Barton (who worked for Red Cross) she went looking for her brother and the ring he had told Eulinda he still had in the letters he wrote her. Later, they found his body and the ring with a note attached to it. The note told her to use the Ruby ring to live and to be free.
In Junot Díaz’s book, This Is How You Lose Her, Díaz uses the numbering system for the individual sections throughout the chapter “The Cheater’s Guide to Love” and the placement of the story as a metaphor for the five stages of grief with an emphasis on Yunior finally accepting responsibility for his cheating. The five stages of grief are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance and are the stages of emotions that an individual experiences while they are trying to learn to live with the loss of a loved one. The sections that are within this chapter all correspond to a certain stage of grief that Yunior is experiencing. During this expanse of time we see Yunior clearly struggle with these emotions even though they occur in no particular order. Yunior starts his
Dear beloved, I hope the hunt has been treating you well. It has occurred to me that the incense you have left behind is at its end. I'll be fine, hopefully. There's enough left to ward off the beasts for another week at most, but it is in God's mercy to leave me unharmed. I await for your arrival soon. I pray this letter reaches you before the next sunrise, but until then I wish you luck on your

I hope your well, as you may of guessed I myself am not doing very well, as a lot has happened to me in these long ten years. By the time you receive this letter, I would of been dead for some time now, I hope my attorney delivered this letter safely to you, and that you are doing well. I often wondered where that rebellious teen who tried to steal from me that night had ended up? I sure hope no grave robbers come to try and steal my pocket book, but lord knows I would kick them right in the “blue jean sitter” if a fool was ever to try. I’m sure you remember that encounter that we had in the middle of the night on the street corner ten years ago, If not, I did not do my job. Remember when I pulled you up and dragged you to my house around
Imagine your own family member constantly manipulating you into thinking you were going to be forever young. Now imagine that person telling every individual that you cannot care for yourself nor will ever get better. To be completely honest, that is a scary thought, not having any control over your own body and believing your caretaker that you are mentally incapacitate to care for yourself. The documentary I chose to watch and write about is Mommy Dead & Dearest, this documentary was released 11 March 2017 and the director is Erin Lee Carr. In this documentary, we see Dee Dee and Gypsy’s narrative who brings Munchausen Syndrome by proxy — a form of child abuse that involves a caretaker making up an illness for
