When There is Nothing Else Left - Simply LOVE

The first example of pure love is a nurse in the city of Freeport who helps Ishmael in the process of rehabilitation. She told Ishmael to think of her as a sister. He definitely used her to help to find himself again and how to love.

While in rehab, Ishmael mentions his Uncle Tommy's name when he is asked if he has any known relatives. His uncle is found and takes Ishmael in to live with him. Sadly his Uncle Tommy died.
But a woman named Laura Simms took Ishmael into her home in New York City. She became a new mother figure in his life. She housed him and supported him through his peace conferences and every day life.
