| Introduction | I was a victim witness (and still am). In 1994, I witnessed my best friend and roommate sustain multiple point blank shots. Over seven years I had to endure several court appearances, "line ups", continuously relocating, and the inability to be an average person in society. In 1997, after my identity was introduced to the culprits, I had picked up my $300, some credit cards, my car and moved to SF. Traumatic does not describe the feeling, non-feeling, ever-guttural emptiness one endures. I have a small sense of what this family is going through and a big understanding that if, only if, there was some support I could have "returned to society" a little quicker. A little money goes a long way. Please dig up what you can to help a family in need, since we can't be there for them emotionally. As for me, I want to thank all my friends that have been there for me. One very special shout out to Kathe Hashimoto for dropping her job to drive with me across the US to help me jump start my life. Lord knows that $300 was a stretch. |
