I am a single mother. My relationship ended in abuse, abandonment, infidelity, death. I have one child, a few, many.
Every single mother is unique, but our commonality transcends our differences.
I am alone, exhausted and, for the most part, I am poor. My life is a constant juggling act. I often feel invisible within the community. This is not to say there are no shining stars. Indeed, there are individuals who have made a point of including my children and me in various events.
