Today we got taken away. We got told we were going to residential school and they took us in the black cars and drove us there. On the ride there I was rally scared and I was crying the whole way. Thomas didn't seem to care. We drove to a boat and on the way the men beat dad up and told him that me and my brothers had to go to residential school and if he tried to stop them they would throw him in jail.
When we go to the school I got seperated from Thomas. Brother Eubies is taking care of Joey and I. I'm tired and my eyes are puffy.
Goodnight
I'll write again tomorrow,

Day Two
I didn't eat anything today. The food smells bad and looks weird. I wish I was at home with my whole family, eating our actual, edible food. I miss home, I don't like it here. I'm going to sleep.
Goodnight
Your crying friend,
~Wilson
Day Seven
Sorry I haven't written for a while, I cry myself to sleep now. I wet the bed last night. Brother Jerry threw me into the cold shower in front of all the boys, naked. I also haven't eaten for what feels like forever. I got taken to the doctors and I'm being sent home. I can't wait to see mom and dad. Father Maynard isn't happy that I'm leaving, but according to him I'm not good for the image of the school. When I was leaving I looked back at what I believe is a prison, and saw Thomas and Joey waving goodbye to me. I already miss them.
I'll write to you later. Thanks
for listening,
