did they slam him to the ground on his elbow and then use that sore, open wound to control him from there on out? Or do they just to that to women calling for help?

I miss my daughter so much.I havent seen her since 2015. Last time I saw her, I drove by their house and they just got pizza and Elena and L were getting out of his car and he was holding the pizza and I waved at L and she waved and smiled SO BIG at me. She really loved me.

Oh I'm on my way I know I am

But times there were when I thought not

Bleeding half my soul in bad company

I thank the moon I had the strength to stop
