I'm no writer, I have no editor, but what I do have is a story I feel I need to share. It's taken me a lifetime to open up about what I've survived at the hands of my father, his shooting death, and my life that followed.An average of 5 children a day are killed by the hands of their parents. I'm hoping that my book will raise awareness on the subject, and help anyone who was born to a parent without a conscience, or who's suffered loss, or abuse, or addiction, or the feeling of defeat. You are not alone. This book is about my life. Nothing is fabricated. I have witnesses to my accounts and a paper trail that leads to my front door as proof of these accounts. Some things were too painful to write about, but I've done the best I can do.I want to remain anonymous in this publishing. I'm finally finding a sense of peace, and I don't want that to change. For those who know me, please respect my privacy and In formatting my book, my grandmothers age was somehow chopped. She was 39 when she had my mother.
Wow today world is so bad. The foster care is bad. Some are good but most of them are not just doing fur the money. The California county needs to really fix the child foster care system. Kids that are abuse most of them turn to crime and drugs. Look at the prison. Are young kids. It's sad. I have friends that they lost there kids. And got them back but mess up. Me my kids never in foster care but C P S was called. They ask too many person questions. But I tell my kids 5 of them ages 38, 35,19, 15,10. And 2 grandkids. Don't push your kids away always talk to them and let them about today world can be mean. I am 53 so me I from the streets. No good parents. So I did it all. Drugs party, crime. So I think us parents be strong and try to your best for your kids or other kids. It's sad you can even walk in night time just for fun. And no one says Hi no more. Why. I can't understand today world we live in. It can be mean.
I'll admit I cringed at the errors, starting with the first sentence but I persevered and found this to be a heartfelt story of a woman who eventually, against the odds, to achieve a happy life.
Lack of proper editing aside, l can appreciate this book! It is full of despair and cycles of tribulation but it is also full of hope. I love to see people help others after they have been through stuff rather than just look for pointless sympathy. Definitely will be recommending this to a few friends who could use the inspiration!
