When I was born, my mother gave me up. She couldn't afford to keep me, so I immediately went to foster care of a woman named Josephine who lived in Michigan.
Josephine named me susanna with a lowercase s. My s was lowercased because I was an orphan, and that was the law.
She had a son named Will, with a capital W. He was very mean to me and always made fun of me. I lived with Josephine and Will with a capital W for 4 years, the longest I've ever been with one person. When I was 4 and a quarter, Will with a capital W was 5. He thought he was big & bad, and so he choked me. I passed out and the police said that I had to go to another foster family.
