Here I battled standing on my religious preference and I found myself cornered by DCFs to vaccinate my daughter to stay in school, that was shut down and administered online via zóóm. I said no and it caused a longer detention and she was forced vaccinated against my will. I carried that weight for so long that I couldn’t move, I felt like I failed her. Running for congress was like a cape, I needed to know fit because I needed to save myself. No one else would. As I share my testimony with you all, I thank Christ because listening to these experiences is confirmation to the love I strive to give my lil sisters today. Pat planted seeds in my life that my environment watered around me. My big sister seeds didn’t make it in the soil that season and if they did idk who I would be today. I really don’t know !
