		<description><![CDATA[Everything here is true. It is.
Or so I thought.
I&#8217;ve realized that if this was to truly benefit me, I&#8217;d post the parts that actually caused pain in me instead of simply outlining the problem.
But to be honest, I doubt there is much hope for me.

My mother&#8217;s older brother.
I liked him, he was a nice man. Average height. He looked like a younger version of my grandfather. I always remembered him because he was bald. He had that personality similar to the tough, but loving American football couch. I loved him dearly.

I have to open my mouth, inhale all I can, push it to my lungs.
I&#8217;m feeling anxious right now, really anxious.
