Hello,
My name is Michaiah and I am writing to find some encouragement concerning my brother. He is just 38 this month and has had two stints in prison and my husband and I drove every couple or few months to see him when he was in Terre Haute. He's been out for a while. He is into the club with the riders and he really is into that right now. He is drinking too much and he had lived with us when he first got out of prison the second time. He stayed here just at around 4 months. He started hangin' with the riders and drinking and it began effecting quality of life for our children so we helped him get an apartment and bought what he needed but we said he had to go. He is living with a girl name Stacey. His name is Rick Parrish (It's actually Wenclewicz but my Mom didn't want her kids to have different last names) Anyway...he has been really drinking again and I simply do not know how to reach him. I mean as kids, we sat on the curb smoking old cigarettes, drinking pop and cussing about all kinds of stuff but we were still in many ways so different from each other and now I can't even communicate with him without getting so frustrated and telling him to shut up. He doesn't care because it's my older brother who's the sensitive one. My little brother calls him a girl? Nancy or something. Maybe Wanda. Anyway..I try to be more sensitive with the older one because he needs that but there so different too.
Rick gets "playful". Only to alot of people, it's aggravation because he'll tell you that you have a big butt but he says it over and over and over until you through stuff at him or he will just pick and pick. He's half sleeved out with demonic images and somewhat intimidating and so arrogant because he's goodlooking. Man, I just don't know what to do. I am asking for anyone who can offer any encouragement because he is really in need of direction but he is just very resistant to some suggestions of improvement. I think he would respect a biker more because that's what he's into. What type of outreach do you all do for the lost biker? What can I do to facilitate the help? Thank You and have a great day. Michaiah
