This…. This is the result of bullying, my handsome boy was fighting a battle that not even I could save him. It is real, it is silent and there is nothing absolutely nothing as a parent you can do to take this deep hurt away. There are no signs, only hurtful words of others that ultimately stole OUR Drayke from this cruel place.

He was 12…. 12 years old. How does a 12 year old who was so knowingly fiercely loved by everyone think that life is so hard he needs to take himself from it.. ????????????

This boy knew love, every single day of his life, he was our world, my world, his dads world, his sisters world… we revolved around this boy.. To know Drayke was to love him, he had a fire that lit for people, his witty personality and those baby blue eyes won over the world. He is my boy, the one person that at any given point would just stop and give me a hug, tell me 100384849 times a day “ Mom, I just Love you”, my basketball and JAZZ obsessed. He always told his dad and Sisters he was going to be the shortest NBA star, so he could team up with @spidadmitchell and they could conquer basketball..

Well Buddy, you are my saving grace, you are daddy’s hunting guide, and you are now the forever protectors of your big sisters.. I’m not sure how to navigate this life without you. I was suppose to spend the rest of my life with you, and instead you spent the rest of yours with me.

My heart is shattered, I don’t know how to fix it, or if I ever will, but I will spend every minute teaching kindness in the memory of my favorite dude. His purpose here was to teach kindness, to show love that and he absolutely did, he took anyone in as a friend so that they had one. Once you were In Drayke’s tribe you were there forever.

I can’t begin to express how thankful I am for my people, for the calls, the texts, all the messages. I try to respond, I do but I don’t know how right now. I will say hold you babies, hold them tight. Teach them to live and to love fierce.

Teach Kindness and #doitfordrayke
