She was abandoned by her father at
age seven. The child care workers seized her at age fifteen when her
mother ran afoul of the law. Her first two foster care placements were
terminated after sexual harassment incidents. On a spur-of-the-moment
whim, she and her foster care buddy hid in the back of an almost loaded
moving van. Six hours later, still fifteen years old, she was a runaway,
homeless street person in a city she never even knew the name of. Soup
Kitchens and Downtown Missions became her new homes. She used the alias,
Mary Smith so the authorities would be less likely to find out her real
identity and return her back north where she hailed from. As the
weather turned colder, she and her buddy hitchhiked further south. She
never knew why but her buddy, her only real friend, then disappeared
from her life. She was sixteen and alone. Her life consisted of
surviving one day at a time. There was no use even thinking about a
future, but then a miracle happened.

Let’s look inside the book!
“My
mother worked in a store during the day, but after Daddy had stopped coming home,
she got a second job in the evenings. She never really explained to me exactly
what it was, but she sometimes used the
term hospitality services industry whenever I asked about it. That job kept her
away most evenings and I hardly saw her anymore. I was home alone but never
really felt abandoned as the lady across the hall from our apartment, I called
her Aunt Jenny but she wasn’t really my aunt, checked up on me regularly and
was handy if I needed anything. So, I pretty much was on my own from around age
seven. I saw my mother in the morning before school and at dinner time before
she went out for the evening.”
