I've grown up in Pontiac and have raised my 12 children in Pontiac as well. I am working to regain full custody of all 12 children so that we can be a household again. My children range in age from age 23 to 1 years old. They are what keep me motivated to better myself. I am a Christian and have faith that God has brought me this far in my journey and will continue to lead me. I recently said good-bye to my premature daughter after caring for her for a few months. This has been a very difficult loss for me, but I continue to persevere and focus on rebuilding my life. I am in the process of regaining custody of two of my children.
