Read about how evil can turn your life around and how I triumphed over the obstacles that I was faced with time and (time) again throughout a lifetime of pure hell.

This book talks about the following topics:

• Gypsy lifestyle with a gypsy mom
• Life- and death-altering obstacles
• Dysfunctional family background
• Incest in the family
• Mom and brothers are fugitives
• Unwed mother raises child on her own
• Physical abuse and mental abuse
• A secret that had to be kept

This story had to be kept secret until it was safe to tell. It was a three-year journey in order to tell in secret. Read about how I endured the hell I was put through and learned to become a survivor in life.

We were a big family of seven. Mom was tough because she had to be. At age nine, Mom told me to keep a secret. She took that secret to her grave with her. Forty-seven years later, that secret created a journey that took me right to the edge.

Several professionals tell me that I am a survivor. This is the story, based on true events that took me through a lost childhood.
