I was five when I lost my own mother. But after reading this book and seeing the terrible things she went through, I can only be thankful. I was very fortunate to have a loving family that wanted me. (My dad’s) She went through the worse experience I think any child could possibly go through. After reading this book, I feel like I should never complain about my life again.”
