I have never been the person that said I am the most unfortunate person in the world. Yes, I have been stalked for thirty years and have had some of the most horrendous things that can happen to a person happen, but there are some people out there that need a machine to breath, can't see, can't hear and can't walk. I will never be the person that doesn't recognize that as bad as I've had it, there are people that have had it much worse; including victims of this same crime.
As you embark on the posts from tonight I want you all to understand something very important. I didn't do this just for me...mostly I did it for Christopher Monti's mom.
I've been through a horrible experience and recognized the day that I met Christopher that he was exactly what Laurie was looking for to take Brian's place...strong, handsome, addicted and confused. I don't mean to take away from Christopher as a person, but he was a long way from home, without friends or family and he needed help. Laurie knew I loved him very much and that made him the best target of all.
I fulfill my promise to his family every single day without any word of encouragement from anyone. NOBODY. Not a single word of thanks or appreciation. I did it all for the love of his adventure to California and his dream of building a life here.
Don't feel sorry for me...feel sorry that you haven't had the chance to get to know me before Laurie and her brother kill me.
