My name is Maribel Isabella and this is my story. From the mountains of Puerto Rico, to the foster care system in Massachusetts, I have survived a Heroin addicted mother, abusive stepfathers, being in a gang, being homeless, and one foster hell after another.
I'm no saint, I've done what I have had to do to survive. I've lied, I've stolen, I've hurt people, I'm not proud of any of it, but it's my truth and I'm ready to share it.
