Falling Doesn’t Mean You Stay Down
That night, I walked through pouring rain, clutching my newborn close as she whimpered. We had nowhere to go. No money. No plan. Just pain.
But something inside me—some primal, furious spark—wouldn’t die.
I found shelter with a friend. Each night as my daughter drifted to sleep against my chest, I whispered to her:
“I will fix this. No matter what it takes.”
