DOCUMENT OF FAMILY DISSOLUTION

I've been abused by my half-brother and his family for more than 28 years. And I've been abused by my half-brother nearly all my life. Because of this ongoing abuse, I have drafted a document, cutting myself off from him and his family.

I spent all afternoon creating this DOCUMENT, WHICH I AM GOING TO TAKE TO THE LAWYER'S ON MONDAY OR TUESDAY. I am going to have it NOTARIZED and put in the PUBLIC RECORDS. I think this DOCUMENT WILL GO A LONG WAY to making me FEEL BETTER ABOUT MY LIFE:

DOCUMENT OF FAMILY DISSOLUTION

I, Nadine Louise Noriega, being of sound mind and body, wish to legally dissolve maternal blood-relative, Paul Michael Maestas, half-brother, from my family tree.
I also wish to legally dissolve any and all relationships, marital and otherwise, which proceed from this relationship.

From this day on, I wish to be known only as the daughter of Joe & Josephine Noriega, and that there are no siblings besides me.

This also applies to relationships Paul Michael Maestas has, either by marriage, blood, and/or both, with the exception of Josephine Marie Noriega, aka MARIE MAESTAS, who is my mother, whom I acknowledge as thus, and who gave birth to me 51 years ago, at Alamosa Community Hospital, DR GRANT HURLEY presiding physician. (SEE BIRTH CERTIFICATE for DETAILS).

Furthermore, because my half-brother and his relations have not conducted themselves properly in their familiar duties towards myself, I wish to annul all association with Paul Michael Maestas, and his entire family, past present and future, and to declare their further association with myself and my name, NULL AND VOID.
I wish it to be known that they are not now, nor ever shall be, related to me in any way shape or form, and that to claim any kind of relationship will result in prosecution to the fullest extent of the law.

I couldn't go to the PODIATRIST TODAY. I WOKE UP with BAD CHEST PAINS, so I CANCELLED THE DOCTOR AND WENT BACK TO BED. The pains were REALLY BAD-------THEY FELT like SOMEBODY WAS STICKING A FORK INTO MY CHEST! I didn't WANT TO RISK HAVING A HEART-ATTACK, so I WENT BACK TO BED. I had a nice, but strange, dream, ABOUT MOM AND DADDY, AND SARGE-------ONE OF MY DOBIES.

I dreamt that MOM WAS IN THE KITCHEN, COOKING SUPPER. She told me to GO OUTSIDE AND FEED SARGE, AS HE WAS GETTING HUNGRY, so I WENT OUTSIDE TO FEED HIM. After I FED HIM, I PLAYED with him for awhile. I called him a 'BIG BOOGER', and I WAS LAUGHING at the EXPRESSION ON HIS FACE, WHEN MOM CALLED ME BACK INTO THE HOUSE. When I went back inside, Mom was talking to CPL SANDOVAL, one of the policemen who used to go to our cafe. Cpl Sandoval wanted to ask me some questions, and I SAID, 'SURE', so we sat down in the front room, and he started asking me questions. I don't know what it was all about, but I REMEMBER THE QUESTIONS HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH CARS AND WATER.

Daddy came back from the store, at that point. He had a bag of groceries, and when CPL SANDOVAL told him WHY HE WAS THERE, DADDY SAID, 'WELL WE CAN'T GO WITH YOU, BUT DEANNA CAN GO WITH YOU. SHE KNOWS MORE ABOUT IT THAN WE DO!', so I went with CPL SANDOVAL to the police station, but I WOKE UP, THEN. My chest was STILL SORE, BUT NOT HURTING LIKE IT WAS.
