Chavez's dog Balto had gotten better but Chavez is very sick now. I stay by his bed side day and night taking care of him because he is like my older brother to me and he needs me. I have lost my mother to T.B. I wasn't going to lose Chavez. I didn't pay no mind to my health to me that didn't matter Chavez matters more to me than my own health does Doc and Richard wants me to go get some sleep and rest but I refuse to leave Chavez when he needs me. I pray to god that he is going to be alright. the next morning I sit in a chair by Chavez's bed I must have fell asleep because I was covered up with a blanket. John must have came in to check on Chavez. God has answered my prayers because Chavez is better now. but I will never give up on my older brother Chavez. and he will never give up on me. I had lost my mother and Chavez had lost his whole family so we both know how it feels to lose your family. that is what drew Chavez to me and me to him. we are family and that will never change. Chavez and I will be for each other until the end when the sprit hose comes for us.
