So...

Um, that caught me by surprise.

That one, it caught me by surprise big time because my mom, you know, she was a big lady, but for the most part she was healthy, you know?

And, and I'm like, man, my father and my mama.

So automatically I'm thinking like, man, what's going to happen to her?

You know, I just went through it with my father.

Like what's going to happen to my mom?

You know, all the normal stuff I'm sitting here thinking and I got football and you know,

I got a baby on the way.

So it's like a lot of this stuff going on in my life right now.

You know, I'm I'm trying to figure it out, you know, at 21 years old, trying to figure it out, you know.

And mom got to a point where she was OK.

And, you know, we was pretty confident where she was.

She was coming home soon, you know, doing, you know, rehab and all that stuff.

She was she was doing fine with all of that.

And sure enough, I get a phone call.

Mom passed December 16th.

Now, I can't remember that Christmas.

Only thing I remember is I quit football.

I was done because people have to realize I'm not a selfish person.
