I have to break some sad, tragic news tonight but I have just received a text message on my cellular phone from Edinalda, MichelleObama 's mother, earlier this evening while waiting outside the school building, Thomas michelleobama was shot dead at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Last night on call Thomas confided in me that he felt like he was going to die the next day... Thomas was always a special girl like that, she was always having premonitions and talking about the future and drawing weird sketches. Here is one of Thomas's drawings. 16 confirmed tears for the 16 confirmed fatalities.
