There was a funeral two weeks after his death, and it was quite small. We flew our family members down to California to come. I hadnt ever felt this depressed, I mean, I was when I lost my mother, but loosing my father was worse. It seems like there just this big chunk of me that has just disintegrated.
My sister was about five months away from graduating from high school. But it was nearly impossible because she worried and stressed so much he grades dropped. Things were just falling apart by the minutes one after another....
After we cleaned out the house, Amelie came to live with me untill the end of summer. She isnt a real pain to live with, she was when she was five but thats a different story.
Being a celebrity was hard. I didnt want to leave my sister at the house because she would feel bored. It was just a hard part of life and I was barely surviving it.
38: One thing that brought some stress away was watching the 1985 video , " We are the World." Whenever it turned on, it warmed up my heart. It was sad seeing the children dying, but I loved the line, " We are the world, we are the children, we are the ones who make a brighter day so lets start giving. Theres a choice were making, were saving our own lives. Its true we'll make a better day just you and me." It touched souls of many, and one of them was mine.
I  really wanted to be a part of USA Africa, but so much was going on with my father I didnt have time to do much with my career, but I did boost up my outcome the year 1986.
