 We got adopted. Over the years, I came to know the full story of what really happened, and she had a son when she was 17. I know that she wanted us to have a better life. The way she saw things going, it wasn't a good environment to raise a kid. The fact that she did that just shows how strong of a woman my mother is. To just be given a chance to be who she wanted us to be, it's just, that means a lot to me.
