Hello to all my loyal and future customers. I was raised in DC and born in North Carolina. I lived in New Jersey for a long time and was employed in the medical field. I came back to DC in 1997, on and off, because my mother was in a nursing home. My two brothers and my father are deceased. My only family is my aunt. She lived in White Plains, New York but retired this year to Charlotte, North Carolina.
My childhood was not a pleasant one. Both my brothers and I, including my stepfather, all suffered great physical, emotional and verbal abuse at the hand of my mother. After high school, I moved to New York with my brother, who to my surprise, was an alcoholic and eventually died at an early age. My other brother died from drugs, both were in their late 20’s. My father died from lung cancer and cirrhosis of the liver. Even though he was my stepfather, he treated me and my brothers as though we were his.
I will continue in a future article.
God Bless, Be safe out there.
Your beautiful vendor, Ms. B.
