I was young and my family barely had anything to offer. I am the fourth born in my family out of six kids. My grandma aside needed care 24/7 which was impossible because children were schooling and parents busy looking for work. My mother was the bread winner of the family since my dad had health issues.
As days went by it even became harder for them to sustain us. One day a woman came and asked my parents if she could lend them a hand in taking care of me. Without hesitation they agreed. Years and years I stayed with different people who we were never connected in anyway but I still survived. My mom kept working hard.
Now at least she has something to put on the table. She has a paying job and does not need to act as mama fua anymore. My dad's health is acting good and atleast they now have time for grandma. No more mocks from neighbors. My siblings are schooling.
