A very sad story certainly.

She was being raised by her aunt and uncle because her mother probably wasn't fit to raise her, or didn't want to. They were playing with the gun, and she pointed it at her cousin and told him she was going to shoot him if he didn't do what she asked. Of course, she had no idea what she was doing; it was a horrible accident; the adults' fault for leaving a loaded gun lying around. She was sent away to live with other relatives for a while, then returned to our town. I still think of her and how awful life must be to have to carry that burden around.Miriam Robbinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12021845886261585678noreply@blogger.com
