Overview

M. Yeung grew up in the foster system. From birth to the age of 18, she carved a life for herself in difficult, often hostile circumstances. This memoir chronicles those painful years and the impact of trauma, abuse, and abandonment. A combination of her 1400-page government file and fragmented memories, this is one woman's journey to reconcile her past. A harrowing and sobering example of what children can experience in the system, this is a story of betrayal, stigma, resiliency, and the choices that can change the course of a life.
