“1 E Coosh EEWA: The way it is Sports Memories By Yvonne Iverson As youth and their fami lies traveled these past few w eeks rep re se n tin g W arm Springs in basketball, baseball, softball and boxing, it just b ro u g h t back all o f th e Spilyay sports stories I Speaks have heard in eU.'; ■? ■ J explicit detail over the years. Now, these youth are out there creating their own memories and sto ries they can tell their children and grand children. For those at hom e cheer ing, you could follow the H it Squad on the NABI Founda tio n w ebsite or you could read the status updates bn Facebook. But there is no th ing like being there to experi ence the determ ination and heart these youth show when they compete. W hat stories will they have to teU? WiU it be the 11-run sixth inning th a t b ro u g h t W arm Springs a come from behind victory to stay in the softbaU tournament? O r maybe it wiU be about the 20-plus car ride to Phoenix, Arizona for the b ig g est N ativ e B asketb all Tournam ent in the country. Sports has the potential to take our kids to places that they have never seen, and to m eet people they otherwise wouldn’t have. I look forward to hearing the stories that re sult from this sum m er’s trav els, so keep it up and continue to create the lasting m em o ries that sports can provide. __________________ i_____ ______________ _________ Luis_____ Diabetes prevention The IHS Model Diabetes P ro g ram is co m b in in g its Healthy Breakfast education sessions w ith the D iabetes E ducation classes, through the H O P E Program.

In the B ook o f M atthew I know th a t th e L o rd Jesus C hrist has forgiven m e for my sin, I will do my best to praise him for giving me an other day o f fresh air, food, w ater and the will to believe in him. Thelma M. Dickson. To life Do my best Family, friends and com munity, My deepest apologies to all o f you for my out-of-control actions o n Ju n e 21. I was heavily under the influence, being in and o ut o f reality. I ’m sorry to have p u t anyone in the terrible situation that occurred. I have been really u n d e rsta n d in g as to w h at could have happened. A nd my higher pow er is bringing light into my life, where I can m ove forward w ithout alco hol. As for now, please for give m e for I was n o t in my rig h t m ind. I w ould never have w anted to harm anyone in that manner. As for now I will take care o f the punish I am dead to him. H e can’t see me cause he doesn’t want to. I can talk to him b u t he ignores me. I reach o u t to h im — m y h a n d re m a in s empty. I try to hold his hand and touch his heart— it only makes him colder. I am no longer a p art o f his life. Love is there but is use less. Pain is chemically eased. T ears m ay fall fro m sa d ness— sadness replaced with anguish— then anger. Memo ries fade... Happiness forgot ten. Frustration sets in. I am a ghost. I haunt his love. His pain. His tears and memories to rem ind him o f the best o f times, the good times and hap piness. I look in his eyes to seek truth— but I can see the lies. I ask questions— why— b ut everything is tw isted. T he truth is I love him. The lie is I let love go. The questions turn into torture, T he twisted thing about it all... is that I ’ll always wait to hold his hand— to u ch his heart— bring my w arm th and to see tru th — and say... take a chance and notice me. I love you to the death. I need you the m ost and I ’m nothing w ithout you. I will always love you and I don’t care w hat them people say. I ’m g o n e.. .H L K O n the o th er hand, life goes on— so m ust I. All that’s been throw n away will hope fully be replaced. Physically— m e n t a ll y — s p i r i t u a l l y — w h a te v e rly ... I t w o n ’t be easy... b u t I ’ll try ... to be u nstuck. W hen n o th in g 'is right—it all gets left.
