My Supports

Support is defined in multiple ways.  For example, "to bear the weight of, especially from below, to hold positin so as to keep  from falling, sinking or slipping.  As a child we received support from our family members and as we come into contact with society, we receive support from teachers, friends and coworkers.  The support I receive at home is from husband and children.

Elijah my oldest son is very loving.  He supports me emotionally.  If I had a hard day at work he will give me the greatest peep talk.  For example, he would say mom you are home now and with your family who loves you forget about it tomorrow is a new day.





Khalil, (blue shirt) is my youngest, he is a definite smooth talker.  He plays the role as the "baby" of the family and keeps me very busy.  He is extremely smart and supports me by keeping me abreast of important dates regarding school and activites at home.


Elio, my husband of 18 years, supports me in the most important way, financially and providing the basic necessities that our family needs.  He is the most my major support system because he is my rock in everyway you can imagine.  If I fall he is there to pick me up and if I make a mistake he is there to provide support to help me fix it.

It would be very difficult for me to live in this world without my family because they are the reason I want to live.  There love and support motivates me to strive for success in everything that I do.  Two years ago my grandmother died on July 4 at 7:30pm at home from cancer.  She was the one person that really taught me all that I know now and supported everything I did up until her last days.  Sometimes I feel lost without her here and I yearn to hear her voice.  If it was not for my family helping through the grieving process I would have fallen into a deep depression.  They are my true blessings from God!

  1. Hi Denise, It is great that your family is such a huge support system for you. I have a smooth-talking son too, he is 9 yrs old and he always greets me with "How was your day today, mom?" If he wants something from me he says, "Lets go in your room and talk." He makes me laugh!

    I lost my mother 4 years ago, so I know how you feel about losing your grandmother. My mother was truly my best friend and biggest supporter. I really miss having her around to share things with. I hope she is the first person I see when I get to heaven! It is great to know that I will see her again!

    Thanks for sharing! Delores
