My parents died a slow and painful death after being shot. As a 14 year old girl watching your parents die can really leave a scar and a memory that haunts your life forever, but what haunts it more is the fact that the dream I had the night before warned me of the mass shooting. Instead of my parents lying there on the ground I had been in their place. That was the first time I cheated death, but at the time I didn't know. Now I wear this charm bracelet with two charms on it: one for the death of my father and one for the death of my mother. I wear a locket around my neck with their pictures in it knowing they are still with me just not physically. I then grew up learning how to live on my own afraid that I was going to die. Death had become my biggest fear along with the fear of people knowing they were the reason for my parents death.

  • Behind every mean girl...there's a tragedy

"There were times of hardship when people forget the courage they need to keep fighting; and survive. But I think as long as we have something or someone to believe in, to keep close in our hearts, courage will never truly leave us. We only have to reach deep in our heart to find it." I never thought I was going to escape my abusive parents. I could no longer see that one light at the end of my tunnel. I was trapped, no way to escape. You would never believe that one trip to the New York Hospital could change my life drastically, and not in the way you guys are thinking. Not negatively, but positively. Thanks to my Doctor and his son, I could finally say goodbye to my dark past and say hello to my bright future involving a massive emotion... LOVE. So, Maybe... There is a Happy Ending.
