October 20, 2024, you went home and I was broken and I'm still broken beyond repair I will never be the same again. I miss you my heartbeat, now my guardian angel ๐๏ธ๐๐
๐จJamaica, we cannot read this story and simply scroll past.
Delroy Britton is a father of three sons, all autistic. He walks them for about an hour to school in Mandeville because he is determined to give them an education and a chance at a better life.
But at home, his family is living without basic necessities. No electricity. No reliable potable water. A damaged roof. No fridge or proper cooking facilities. His sons sometimes have to depend on others just to charge their tablets.
He is currently out of work and still refuses to give up on his boys.
He wants to build a better life through livestock farming, but right now, this family needs help.
If you can assist with repairs, water, electricity, appliances, food, transportation, employment, livestock-farming support or financial assistance, please step forward.
And if you cannot give, share this post. Someone in your network may be able to change this family's circumstances.
Let us turn compassion into action.
Three boys deserve a safe home.
A father deserves a chance to provide.
And sometimes, all it takes is one person deciding to help.
๐ฏ๐ฒ Please share widely.

A friend of mine (well, despite seh we no chat I still consider him a fiend), said to me years ago โnever be the main character on twitter. The same persons who laugh with u today will be the first to drag youโ.
It stuck with me for years after. Almost got caught twice.
FUNCTIONAL DEPRESSION IS REAL!!!!
You work, joke around,take care of people around you....but mentally you are drowning in your own thoughts and nobody knows it....
(PLEASE NOTE THIS IS JUST AN AWARENESS POST THAT MOST PEOPLE GOES THROUGH DAILY)
Someone can be on here tweeting and still fighting for their lives fyi. A post isnโt a sign that someone is okay, these platforms serve as a distraction most times.
