My little step-brother's 12th birthday is tomorrow. And I won't be able to wish him a happy birthday. I can't. I haven't seen him or talked to him since May of 2005. He lives with his bitch of a mother now and has since the death of his father. Since my mother and step-father were never legally married, when my stepfather died, my mom had no way of keeping my brother. Thus causing him to have to live again with his biological mother.

Let me give a small insight into my little brother's biological mother. She abused him for the first 5 years of his life. My stepfather was awarded custody and his biological mother was granted supervised visitations only. For 5 years my little brother lived with us. He learned what it was like to be a part of a loving, caring family; not an abusive one. Due to his early upbringing he has a learning disability. He has ADHD and up until recently was borderline autistic. When my stepfather got sick and passed away, due to the lack of legality, we had no choice but to have my brother go back to live with his biological mother. My brother took his father's death better than the knowledge of having to live with his mother. He screamed and cried and held on to the police when they told him he had to go with her.

I hate her with all that is in me. If it were not the guilt I'd feel of having my brother lose both his parents, I would have killed her. The jail time would have meant nothing to me if it meant that my brother would be able to stay with my mom and sister.

Obviously it didn't happen. And now I haven't seen or talked to him since May of 2005. I doubt if I'll ever see him again and if I do it will be much later in life. Oh well. Life will play out as its meant to be.

So here is the lost birthday wish for my little brother. Happy Birthday Matthew. I love you.
