Thomas' Story

Hey, we thought you guys should know the reason why we created this site. The reason is our best friend in the entire world, and the guy we would die without. Thomas.

Ashley--
I have known Thomas since I was 3 years old. My family moved in and he lived across the street from me. His family was so nice, and we loved them immidiatly. His mother does suffer from a horrible disease though it is called bipolar. Thomas and I grew up together playing sports, just talking, and just doing everything together. We were inseperable. Everything was just fine, until the summer before 7th grade. (Summer oh seven). I was just being my lazy old self sitting on the computer IMing, when i saw Thomas' away messege. It read "taken by the police, wont be back for a while". At first I thought hes just playing around. But.. I soon learned differently. Thomas came to my door about 2 days later, and asked if we could talk. I asked him what was going on. And then, I learned the story....Thomas' mom beats him regularly and he finally got sick of it, so he held a knife to her throat as a threat. He didnt do anything but when he realized he was just going insane he ran away from home. His Mom called the police and they found him at the park. So he was taken back to the house, put in handcuffs and brought to a mental facility to get things worked out.
A few days later he told me that he had to go to a special school for a week. That meant he would miss football weigh ins which made him even more depressed and devestated. Football was his life. Soon he came back to school and ended up getting to weigh in for football. He ended up being a light weight and finished his season really well. I must say hes quite a stud =] Rico calls him a stud muffin. haha. but anyways.. Thomas had always been kind of a dare devil.. but he had gotten worse. He was given a pass to get out of class if he needed to see a counsler at anytime, so he would use it just to get out of the class because he didnt care about his grades, or learning or anything anymore..
This kind of stuff went on for a while. Then, after a few months, the tests came out that he had the same disease his mother has. Thomas is bipolar.
Lots of things have gone wrong, he is not a virgin, he does drugs, he drinks beer and gets drunk, he swears and uses inappropriate sexual terms all the time now. He talks about sex 24/7 and just recently told me that he wants to be like Marilyn Manson because Marilyn could suck his ..... yeah... that. But anyways.. things have gotten worse and worse over time, the girl who loves him with all her heart is being pushed away by him every moment and the closer she tries to get, the farther away he pushes her. People are giving up on him left and right, hes a handful and sometimes seems almost impossible to deal with. I have tried giving up on him myself, this was after he told me that i was annoying and i needed a new personality (of course he threw in some fancy language, if you know what i mean =-/ I wish i could have the old him back. He has become an awful person. And i cant stand to see him like this. I wish that he hadn't chosen to put the knife to his mother's throat that one day. his whole life changed that day, and he changed the lives of so many other people.. including his best friend...me.

(sorry that was very long, but his story is very complicated, besides, you think that was long, I left out half the story so it wasn't as long...=-o
