The explanation.

I have been told repeatedly that I should write a book about my life, I don't feel it to be all that interesting but after years of being pushed I agreed to a blog instead.

Over the next few months I'll walk you through the life of a second generation immigrant child, born premature and addicted to heroin, raised in an abusive home by the mother who tried to abort through drugs and alcohol. And the people who got her through that and turned that broken child into the mostly functional adult I became.

This will be a very graphic and shocking read. These stories are not for the faint of heart and are certainly not for children. Perhaps though there will be one person who will read this and know they are not alone in this world, there is hope for a better life and in the end there is truth in the statement "That which does not kill us only makes us stronger"
