Castanita’s Journey
Dec 10th, 2019
I was born in Chicago Illinois. Who would ever thought that my life would end up the way it did? As a child I was molested at an early age, got involved with drugs and the lifestyle. My grandmother tried her best to make a home for me, but I wanted and needed the love, and acceptance from my mother. My life wasn’t like most; the horrific part of my life started when I was 5 years old, when I was molested by my mother’s boyfriend. I dropped out of school in the 6th grade, and eventually was introduced to powder cocaine. At the age of 11 I found out that my mother was in Cleveland Ohio, so I hitched hiked to Cleveland to find her.
