I have had trouble with the law since I was a little kid. I began stealing when I was seven. Every time I stole, the cops would bring me home. I guess the law got fed up with me getting in trouble, because they finally put me on probation.
I was twelve years old when I got put in juvenile hall for fighting a kid and knocked out the kids teeth. I was in there for two weeks. The judge didn’t release me to my dad, the judge put me in a group home. The group home wasn’t bad. I became close to a couple of the staff, Eddy and Brenda. They were the coolest people ever. But I didn’t like being away from my family.
When I was in the group home it was the worst year of my life. I was in the seventh grade and I went to Val Verde community school. Val

That year I found out my mom was addicted to crystal meth. I could not believe it. We went from watching A&E’s Intervention together, a show about drug addicts, to my mom becoming a drug addict. That is when my world came crashing down. It was the start of one of the most important times of my life and knowing that my mom would not be there to mentally, emotionally, and often physically, support me was tough. It was extremely hard not being able to eat because my mom swore there were bugs in my food to my mattress being thrown out because “it was infested with bedbugs.” It was tough having to call other people to give me a ride to school because my mom was not capable of doing so.

It was too much for me to grasp. The week I was to leave, a family offered to take me in and raise me!…
