Something I know thats interesting about my 'mother' is that she was a drug addict for 12 years and still is. And she shot someone supposedly 'accidently'
Thank heavens I was adopted. Something about my adopted mother: She is the most amazing and loving person I have ever met in my life...Oh and she has had Type 1 diabetes since she was 5. |

I never thought I would be able to have a natural birth - I had two. I never thought I'd be able to breastfeed - I'm going on 7 months, and now I'm an advocate. I never understood what it really meant to be busy, until I was a mother. Now I know just how much of my life was lived in total utter undeniable ignorance - I owe a lot of mommies, a lot of apologies for over the years!

I was born to a Cuban mother and American father out of wedlock. They married and then divorced almost immediately. My mother was murdered when I was 4yrs old by her boyfriend who was one of my many criminals who was released from Mariel Harbor in Cuba...it's been 25yrs and he has never been caught. I was sent to live with my dad and step-mother and my 1/2 brother was sent with his dad. My step-mother was very mean to me. She was jealous and resentful. She abused me mentally and physically and treated me like her personal maid and nanny for my 2 younger 1/2 brothers...because of the anger and stress growing up, by the time I was in high school I would scratch my face and bite my wrists out of frustration and thought of committing suicide...when I was 18, I was allowed to have my first boyfriend, I married him at 20 and got the hell out of my house (my step-mom tried to control my wedding as well)...I was married and very much in love, 4yrs after my wedding I had my 1st child and my husband left me for another woman that he worked with...I had no job cause I was laid off, no school cause I quit college to get married and he told me that we couldn't afford it and we had 2 foster kids...I struggled by myself for a year as a single mother of 3, working and going back to school....I was so depressed and stressed that I lost so much weight ( a size 0 was loose on me)...finally the girls were removed cause the foster care agency was worried for my health but knew I was a good mother beside what was happening in my life personally...a year later, my husband decides he wants to make-up (at this time I did not know about the woman, I thought he left cause he was a momma's boy and me and his mom did not get along). We get back together, get pregnant again...then I find out about the other woman...I almost miscarry my baby...I continue with school but quit working....fast forward to now...I am 29, with a soon to be 5yr old son and soon to be 3yr old daughter, I am 1yr shy of getting my bachelors degree in Psychology and I plan on getting my Master's once the youngest is in school. I plan on using my degree to work with troubled children who have been neglected, abused, and/or have experienced a tramatic event such as myself...I am not a very religeous person, but I believe things happen for a reason, and maybe all of my bad expereinces in life are so that I can help others? Just a thought
![]() I finally was reunited with my mother's family when I was pregnant with my first child. My grandma was dying of cancer and I was able to see her before she passed. I keep in touch with my cousins using myspace and facebook and I found my 1/2 brother and I will be meeting him for the 1st time in 25yrs this July, as I am also a bridesmaid in his wedding ![]() So because of all my experiences, I strive to be the most loving and understanding mother that I can. I am very open and honest with my kids. We have a very close relationship and I know that I lost so many memories that I could have had with my own mother and I plan on relishing and taking in and enjoying every moment and memory with my kids as humanly possible. They are the world to me! |
