It has now been 6 weeks since we have started traveling from Georgia. We, the Cherokee people, have not seen civilization for 3 days and my father is on the verge of dying. He caught diphtheria just last night. It is really cold. As I walk barefooted, I think of our old land and how they took it away. It's not fair we have never done anything wrong! Did we? I don't know. We must have if they are being so mean to us. They even called us one of the five civilized tribes. Doesn't that mean anything or is it just another name? Every second of our journey babies are crying and families are grieving over lost loved ones. Every stop we make there are 15-20 people buried.
