This is Eileen Marie's personal story which begins in the late 1930's, when she was a toddler. When Eileen was three, her mother died and she was placed in an orphanage along with her eight siblings; then torn away to be placed in a series of foster homes. This is her story of perseverance and strength through physical, psychological and sexual abuse, and the heartache of being separated from family. It's a touching journey through hardship and pain, into self reliance, forgiveness and love.
