A Statement from Pari:

"When I was ten years old, I spent a lot of my time in the hospital. Thinking in my head, I wish I could just die. My right hand doesn’t work, my speech is gone. What’s the point. Because of the tragic experience, I now have PTSD, depression, and anxiety. And it’s still hard to this day. I try to go one day at a time and try not to over think. I have good days. I have bad days. But I never give up. My own father tried to commit suicide and after that experience there’s no way I would do anything like that. Life is hard, but never give up. I recently lost all of my money in my bank account and I’m really stressed out. But I’m trying to go one day at a time.

I created this piece to show others to never lose hope. It will get better. And I’ll always be there if anyone wants to talk.

I have been through a lot in my life. The hospital, losing my home, my father, just all the bad luck. I will stop nothing to never give up. I want to inspire everyone. I don’t want to worry about anything in my life, whether it’s financials or pain. I want people to know my name. Yes, not everyone is going to love me and that’s okay. If I can help at least one person and make them laugh, I know I’ve done my job."
