Overview

"True Stories of Survival from Foster Care Alumni will captivate you....""When I was taken from my mother, I was found broken, burnt, nonverbal and locked in a basement, with a boy just a few years older than me. For years as a young child, the identity of this young boy plagued my dreams and instilled a child-like fantasy of a lost brother and sister running down the street into each other's arms."" Phyllis Amalfitano Kessler Guilmette Thompson""In the hall closet where I had been forced to spend most of my 6 years, was the opening to the laundry chute. I knew that the next floor down below the laundry chute was the cold, hard, cement floor of the basement laundry room. Just around the corner from that was the sliding glass door leading out around the back side of the house. This is what I viewed... and dreamed... as being my way to freedom.""ShirleyAlexis JohnsonBrady ""The acts were sinister, and we often feared for our lives. Having a loaded shotgun in our faces, knives pitched at us, beaten with vacuum cords until our skin disappeared and slapped unconscious was merely everyday life in our home.""Helen Ramaglia"
