I don’t know how I came to South Carolina but I do know that South Carolina was my parents’ home. The youngest of three siblings I was reunited with my birth mother and brother at the age of 14 years old. Throughout the years I don’t know what happened to my sisters. I don’t even know if she is still living. I can remember being very young, maybe as young as two years old living with The Johnson Family. When I was very young I don’t remember The Johnson’s being mean to me. I do know I was never treated equal. It doesn’t take much for a young mind to realize there is no favoritism. The beatings started long before school age. I ran away from South Carolina in 1962 to live with my birth mother and brother. Little did I know that the horror was not over for me. Just another person, time, and place. It can be another book in itself.
I married a very young age. God blessed me with two beautiful daughters, 11 months apart. I was a baby raising a baby. By the GRACE of God we made it. I have always been a strong believer in Education. I went back to school to better my life, because I couldn’t instill the need of education my children without doing something about my own. I worked in the medical field for 28 years. My whole life changed when I accepted Jesus Christ into my heart, and made him the HEAD of my life. There is nothing SWEETER. My favorite book in the Bible is the book of JOB, and my favorite word is “Storm”.
When the wind begins to blow and the big crystal of raindrops begin to fall. I look up and hold Jesus hand. I know he will bring me through the storm; all I need to do is HOLD on.view less
