This is my true story. We grew up in this world and have been haunted by it all our lives. Some of my sisters succumbed to drugs, others to alcohol to ease their pain. I've lost five sisters, one to drugs and the others to breast cancer or related effects of rheumatoid arthritis. One sister is homeless, and I don't know her whereabouts. All of us learned to cope and grow up with dignity and integrity. Hope springs eternal, Swear to God, Holy Bible.
