How I Survived me too in a Christian World

By Koe Doll Rose

You don't have to turn to drugs, alcohol, prostitution, and the LGB community either; that is just a big letdown and will hurt you in the end. Talk to God! Make him your best.

So being the good, loving, and protective parents they were, they left me in the safest place they knew of—my other grandparents. My older sister stayed with a friend, and my brother stayed somewhere else that I don’t recall now. If you have a little brother, well, you
