1 of 234

When I look back at where I came from, I see a miracle emerging from the dark mist. I see me.I started my life in an alcoholic, dysfunctional family.

SOMETIMES AT NIGHT Sometimes as I drift off to sleep, my mind wanders back in time and I'm a little child again. The last conscious thought I discern is my own voice calling, "Mom? Mom?"
