I’m a widow and I work as a cleaner to keep my son safe, fed, and proud of who we are. But one party invitation reminded me that not everyone sees us the same way. When he came home in tears from a rich classmate’s party, I knew something was very wrong… and I wasn’t going to stay quiet.
The alarm clock’s shrill cry pierced the quiet of our small apartment, and another day threatened to break my spirit before it even began. My name is Paula and survival isn’t just a word — it’s the breath that fills my lungs and the blood that pumps through my veins.
