Watching how my Mom and her sisters act around each other and how my Dad and his brother and sisters act towards each other always worried me. I wanted to close relationship with my brother and not the relationship my parents have with their siblings. Surprisingly, my brother and I have a close relationship. He has stood by my side through everything that I have gone through. Whenever I tore my ACL and I couldn’t walk well or go to school, my brother missed some days to stay home and help me get through it. He got my homework I missed and he would bring me food and would help me walk when I needed to get up. When I recovered and was able to play soccer again, he came to every game no matter what. When the high school team went to state, he missed school that day to come up and support me. I can always count on him coming to my games. And same for him. He made it to State for track and I drove up that morning to watch him run, just like every other track meet I watched of
