“It brings me great joy and relief as I’m retiring from Drag as Sheba
Life has been severely cruel to myself and my family leading up to and after my mother’s passing do to
Negligence at her job, MALPRACTICE with her surgeon, and cancer misdiagnosis.
Can’t forget my disowned Cousin NATASHA LEAN THOMPSON who withheld 15,000 of my mother’s insurance policy to pocket it on personal expenses like the Demon she is. Lied and said my mom wanted to be cremated so she could pocked the money. Leaving me in over 10,000 in debt over funeral cost that Only my family and I paid for out of Our own pockets.
Y’all know I’m stronger than most but my mental health has decreased blow after blow the this year. Leaving the stage was a no brainer as my love for the stage has diminished.
Family
The passings of my aunt Ethel last Nov, Grandma LoLa last December, Coworker Miss Jamie in February and my dear sweet Mom in May and now my Aunt Esther just two weeks ago.
Work
Due to untimely passings and me taking unpaid leave of absence’s to grieve privately & helping my family. I lost two jobs. So drag became an obligation rather than just an outlet.
Making Drag my only source of income has ruined my love of performing for my community as Reaveanna/Sheba for the sake of financial survival. It’s just not enough, nor would I ever recommend struggling for the sake of “Drag”. The unknowing of when your coin will hit your account, knowing good damn well you did the job weeks ago was the last straw to keep it 100.
To my sisters and misters that checked in and was “”physical present thank you. Those who didn’t, may God help you whenever you fall short of a real one.
To all the promoters, club owners and staff I love y’all always.”
