1 Where it all began

I am from the country of beautiful Belize. I've lived here all my life and had some kids of my own. Four boys and two girls. I am so proud of who they are becoming as role models and contributors to society. I am number five of twelve children that my birth mom brought forth on this earth. I was five moths old when I was left alone Mabey with the intention that I would perish. My biological protectors name starts with G. I'm not sure what she was going through at this time in her life but it sure could not have been good. I was left alone for days screaming because of hunger, the dirty diaper on my buttocks, the mosquitoes having their feast on my skin or the fact that I was hanging upside down from a hammock that was my resting place.

My neighbor at that time heard my cries and she tried her best to get me out. Her husband was not at home so she had to wait until he came back. He finally came and rip the door from the hinges. I finally had some human contact after days of crying for my mother. Ger as I always called her was not doing too well herself. Times were hard but she shared everything she had with me. My mother came back from where ever she was just packed what belonged to her and bolted.
