Grammar Check please..

Please help checking on my grammar, in a bit less formal english. Thank you in advance.

1) "People will breath my exhaling to live"

*not sure if it is totally understandable, the long sentence should be "I will make the people to breath my exhaling in order to live"

2) According to the anthropological data base from Big Momma's Big-Fact Labortory. Around 500 BC - 100 BC, 4 'knuckles' were warped to the earth while seperately located
in different places.

*Not quite sure about 'seperately located in different places'

3)Modern record shows that these 4 'knuckles' were then ended up in 4 people's hand respectively.

*I wonder if there's better words than 'ended up' here? Is 'respectively' correctly used?

4) Because of her loathy attitude, everybody except her own daughter scattered, (they?) left her behind to form a new union.

*do I have to put a 'they' there? I would rather not if it is okay! Added that 'they' are already mentioned in the sentence before.

5) Her lab successfully came up with a formula that enable(s?) the hidden power of 'knuckles' unleash to life!

*did I use 'unleash to life' correctly here? looking for something better, something a little both 'comic relieved', dramatic would be a plus.

Plenty of questions, TY again

The Bulacan school is requesting your good office that the open parking space located at the front of Bonfacio shrine be donated to the school for their guests and/or visitors especially if there is an event.

We are hoping that the above mentioned request be given an utmost consideration.

Dear me-- Indian English! It sounds very odd to these American ears. We would write:

On behalf of the Bulacan School, we would like to request for the use of our school's guests or visitors the open parking space located at the front of Bonfacio Shrine.

Parking is at a premium in this area, and we would be very grateful if you could permit us to use that space, pa
