I don't know if this is true, I so hope not, but I won't be surprised if it were. The acts of the family in the last two years months have left me extremely shocked, disgusted, saddened and beyond speechless!
Michael had a HUGE family, and yet he always acknowledged he was "one of the loneliest people in the world". He genuinely loved, cared for, and did his best to heal people around the world and yet he himself never found that same genuine love, caring and healing from people around him-especially from his family. He stated how he used to get out of his house at night and walk in the streets hoping to find someone who'd be his friend. Many fans who had been following the evil witch hunt he was subjected to in the last two decades were so worried when the This Is It shows were announced. I was one of them. I have been praying for Michael every single day for the past 20 years(ever since I became a fan) and for the first time ever, inspite of my ceaseless prayers for his well being I was so scared in my heart that something tragic would happen and the concerts wouldn't take place. I'd cry with fear almost every day. My mum said it was impossible for someone his age to pull off 50 concerts, that he should just cancel them and take care of himself, let himself be healed and take things at his own pace. And I'm a fan living oceans away in India. Many other fans on the boards were also concerned about his health. The follower fans were worried. They could 'see' Michael was being mishandled. Where was his family then? Why didn't they tell him to cancel the shows and heal himself first? Why didn't they make sure that he was being taken care of? Simply because they did not care. Not enough. Perhaps not at all. And when the most horrible tragedy struck, to save their own faces they put the blame on Michael that it was he who had cut himself off from them! That he was 'addicted' and did not listen to them, that they tried to 'intervene' and he did not allow it! What rubbish!! Worst of it all, they even shook hands with the media-with the KILLER media that had been crucifying him for decades, and went all over the TV and newspapers regurgitating their BS addict story. They did more harm to him in two years than the media did in the last 20!
I've said it before and I'll say it again-we, the fans are the only real family Michael ever had. We knew who he was, still do, always will.., despite the lies, slander, innuendos, mud-slinging and hate-campaigns, we will 'always' LOVE him, SUPPORT him, STAND by him, DEFEND him, and be PROUD of him, not because we are crazed fans, but because we KNOW him! We know his heart, his soul, his being and that is why we are still fighting for him, and shall continue to do so until he gets the respect, appreciation and justice he has always deserved.
