2022: I had cut all my hair off while in a rebound relationship after my husband’s death in 2020. I was mentally unstable, broken, and running from grief.
2024: My hair has grown back healthier than ever, and I have found contentment as a widow. I am mentally stable, at peace, and genuinely working through my bereavement.
Every chapter will always be dedicated to you. For as long as I live.
54 years of pure beauty. 54 years of strength. 54 years of courage. 54 years of growth. 54 years of grace.
For a world that wasn’t always the kindest to you, you have given so much kindness back to it.
May your 54th chapter be magical! Overflowing with peace, love, and all the blessings this world has to offer. You deserve all things magical because you are magic itself.
The greatest privilege and honor of my life is being able to have shared 32 (and counting) of these years with you. The greatest privilege and honor of my life is being your daughter.
With everything in me, I thank God for your love, strength, and encouragement.
Kits filled with comfort items for survivors of domestic abuse / violence residing in a women’s shelter.
Growing up, I was subjected to domestic violence and watched my mother fall victim to it for many years. She, however, didn’t stay a victim. She emerged as a survivor, and so did I.
Both my mother and I are survivors of domestic abuse. Out of respect and privacy for her story and mine, I’ll withhold any further details.
I would like to introduce, in honor of my Mother Sonia, my Survivor Care Kits! 💜 Survivor Care Kits are kits filled with comfort items for survivors of domestic abuse / violence residing in a women’s shelter.
I’ve chosen the Detroit Police Victim’s Assistance Program as my first location. Oftentimes, women’s domestic absuse shelters are secret locations so that the victims are protected and kept safe. I’m confident that the Detroit Police Department will get these kits to where they are most needed.
