Now that the dust has settled, I want and need to thank everyone for this camp.
There's been a lot going on in my life. My mental health and the passing of my father certainly made this fight camp a difficult one.
As I say that, I reflect that I have close men in my life who are going through their own battles. Departed loved ones, sick children, financial struggles. They're the warriors that I truly looked up to for this camp.
That being said.

All my close friends, my NDC brothers, and sisters. You've shown me so much love, and I love you guys.
@linda___defreitas thanks for supporting me through one of the hardest times in your life, the passing of your husband. I couldn't be the father I am without your help
Dad,
This was a hard one. No one was more proud of my fighting than you. I had a moment when they rose my hand, and I could barely hold my tears. I know you watched this one from heaven, and I know with all my heart that you guided my hand to victory. I hope I made you proud. I miss you.
