I am one of the children and lived the struggle, these are memories that no one can take from me, one can not imagine stories like this, they have to be lived.
When my children were growing up I used to tell them stories that I remembered of my youth, they would spend hours just listening to me and asking me questions over and over. As I was telling the stories I realised how important it was for them to know about me and the experiences I had gone through that's when I began writting a journal of my memories and sharing them with my brothers and sisters to either clarify them or to remember something that I no longer was sure of.
After I got married I moved to the United States with my husband and my oldest son. I continued to write on my journal but I also needed to improve my English language so my children could read it some day.
I went back to school and finished my MS in Training and Development. Since then many things happen in my life one of them was becoming disabled. I do live a full life with my sons and grand children and I want very much for them to learn about my amazing life.lihat lebih sedikit
