Background

At the age of two I was adopted by a single woman who was loving and caring. At the age of 15 my mom was diagnosed with cancer and passed away when I was 16. For a few months I was a ward of the court due to paperwork having been missed placed for my aunt (my mom’s sister) and uncle to be my legal guardians. I then moved to Colorado to live with my aunt and uncle who shortly adopted me. I didn’t have a close relationship with my aunt and uncle until recently. During this time FSP was a community I could go to where other people understood where I came from and how it affected me.
