Mother Antonia Brenner was and still is a shining example for all of us as to what it means to take up one’s cross and follow Christ.) (from 2015)
This is a love story. No, it is not about romantic love. Rather, it is about the love of Christ exploding in the soul of a woman who ran with her God given gift and did her best to shower it upon some of the meanest and worst criminals in Mexico.
This is about Mother Antonia Brenner, who was born in Beverly Hills, CA, married and divorced twice, had seven children and ultimately became known as the “Prison Angel” of La Mesa Prison, the worst and most dangerous prison in all of Mexico. Mother Antonia died two years ago on October 17. On the anniversary of her passing I just thought I would remember her with a few words.
Mary Clarke was born in Beverly Hills on December 1, 1926. Her dad, Joe Clarke, was a successful businessman and Mary and her two siblings grew up surrounded with affluence and the glitz of the movie world. One thing was certain about Papa Joe. No matter how good life was for his family he made sure his kids were always taught to help the less fortunate. The desire to help others would blossom in Mary and was one day, destined to explode. However, before the “explosion” Mary embarked on a circuitous life journey.
Mary became more and more involved in charity work and has her seven children got older she began to visit La Mesa Penitentiary to deliver donations such as food, medicine and clothing to the prisoners. The plight of the prisoners at La Mesa began to impact her greatly and as time went by her growing compassion and love of neighbor would become focused on these people. They would become her specialty, her ministry, her purpose in life.
The story of how this twice divorced woman and mother of seven kids from two marriages was accepted by the Catholic Church as a Sister and founder of a new order can be found at the links provided. Suffice it to say that as time went by Sister Antonia became “La Mama” (Mother Antonia) aka The Prison Angel, She moved freely among the drug traffickers, thieves, murderers, rapists and others touching cheeks and offering prayers. Many of these people were among the most violent and desperate of men. Yet she happily walked with them and comforted and consoled them and held their heads between her hands as they were dying.
I believe that one day Mother Antonia Brenner will be canonized a saint. She was an example for each and every one of us showing us how to selflessly “love our neighbor” no matter who they might be. Her life also shows all of us that no matter who or what we are or where we have been or what we have done, God is always calling us. Like Mother Antonia, all we have to do is listen to His call.
Mother Antonia, please pray for us. Please remember her followers, The Eudists Servants of the Eleventh Hour and consider donating to their prison ministry.

The Iron Fist tasting room is located in a very modern building right next to Chicano Park (which was recently recognized as a National Historic Landmark, with murals covering most of the concrete surfaces of the interchange and on-ramp to the Coronado Bridge). The main Iron Fist location, where they do the brewing, is up north in Vista, CA. The Barrio Logan tasting room is large and trendy. There is a nice outdoor area (rained out on the day of my visit, unfortunately, but that's a rare occurrence in San Diego).
They were pouring 22 beers on my visit. I ended up trying two flights and enjoyed just about everything. My favorites were the stouts brewed in collaboration with legendary home brewer Ken Schmidt. These are branded "Aloha" and have Hawaiian-themed names.
Nelson the ImPALEr (Pale Ale, 5% ABV). Note of apple juice on the nose, seems like a Belgian-ish yeast. Light gold color. Hops definitely present but not overwhelming. 3.25/5
Pecan Pie Porter (Porter with roasted pecans and vanilla, 9.5% ABV). Interesting! Body of a brown, nose of a BBA, raisin flavor, maybe fusil alcohol, sweet. The vanilla was a bit too strong for the pecan. Overall, a good beer. 3.5/5
Aloha Plenty (Ken Schmidt porter with coffee, coconut, macadamia nut, 9.5% ABV). Wow. I could drink this every day. The coconut is perfectly balanced with roast malts, coffee, nut. Incredible. 4.5/5
Koloa Town Brown (Ken Schmidt porter, 9.6% ABV). Quite similar to the other porters on offer, but not quite as good. 3.25/5
Coffee Milk Stout (4.5% ABV). This is a passable milk stout. It doesn't measure up to other offerings available here. 3/5
Big Kahuna (Ken Schmidt Russian Imperial Stout, 9.7% ABV). I wasn't sure about this one. At first I thought I detected a metallic flavor on the finish, but I think it was probably just the coffee blend in the stout. Overall this was fine. 3/5
There is a restaurant next door; you can go there to order and then they will bring your food over to the bar.
In addition to the patio and the main room, which has plenty of seating, there is a small lounge with leather sofas. Apparently you can rent that room for special occasions. Might be a good place to watch some of March Madness.
Google Maps brings you to the wrong side of the building. Cut through the parking lot next to Chicano Park, then turn right and you'll see Iron Fist almost at the end of the building. There is a parking garage entrance just before you get there, and quite a bit of street parking.

I could come up with a dozen different titles for this blog entry. I wonder if any of my old blogger friends will see this – I’ve poked my head in on this site a few times in the past year, but I haven’t been diligent about reading like I should…and I’ve clearly stopped writing for over a year.
I mentioned my health issues from last year in my last journal entry – swallowing issues, colon cancer, etc. I took all of that as a sign that my body was telling me I needed to make changes. I was under a lot of stress. I think the swallowing issues are closely related to my stress levels.
I was not being a good mother to any of our children. I don’t feel I was being a good wife, either. I was finding any way to escape that I could.
So much I want to say here, but when I’ve looked online for women in similar situations, all I’ve found are throngs of posters discussing what horrible people they are for not only having negative feelings towards their special needs kiddo, but – God forbid – discussing those feelings publicly.
Maybe I just wasn’t meant to have three children, period. Forget the “step” and the “special needs” labeling – three children can be a handful. Many of you know this. I don’t know how some women do it alone. (I’m looking at you, Rose!!)
Late last year, I started asking myself the hardest questions of all: Can I do this forever? Can I continue living my life the way I have been? Can I get past the anger, frustration, anxiety and stress I feel as a mother of a child with special needs?
One morning – following an especially trying evening where Colin had peed on the floor in his room for no apparent reason – I lost my cool. I was exhausted. I was tired of being disrespected. I was still angry from the day before. A million excuses come to mind, but none of them is legitimate – none of them excusable. I grabbed Colin by the back of the neck, got in his face and yelled. I made him cry. The bus had just shown up and – without apologizing or trying to calm him or myself – I sent him on his way and slammed the door behind him, then burst into tears myself – right in front of the other two boys.
By that point, I realized I was just angry all the time. Just seemed like every day, something was setting me off.
Later that day, I got a call from CPS. When Colin got on the bus crying, they asked him what was wrong. He told them I choked him. (Not what happened, for the record – but I understand that “grabbed the back of my neck” isn’t a phrase that would spring to mind for him.)
We went through the CPS process – we were interviewed, Colin was interviewed, the other boys were spoken to and photographed. In the end, they agreed that this wasn’t an issue of a child in danger – this was a mom who had a bad day and knew she’d made a mistake.
Though, at that point, I was already considering leaving. I’d done some soul searching and wasn’t sure I could handle staying – this CPS incident scared me even more. What if one day I lost my cool with Colin and it cost me Ryan and Robbie as well? What if one day he pushed me so far that I did something I wouldn’t be able to take back?
But these are things we can’t discuss. These are thoughts you can’t even talk about with your psychologist.
My stomach is in knots sharing this, but I feel it needs to be said. How can someone get help if they’re not even allowed to discuss it?
I remember the first time I made Robbie cry. He was maybe a year old, sitting in my lap… he reached for something dangerous – hot coffee maybe? – and I raised my voice at him for the first time. It shocked him and he started crying. I felt like a monster making this poor baby cry! I held him and apologized.
Aside from the occasional hand pop as a toddler to keep him from touching something he shouldn’t, I never hit my child. Never hurt him intentionally.
When I moved in with Rick, I didn’t know how to handle older kids. I went from mom of a 4 year old to mom of a 4, 5 and 6 year old. I went from someone who had only a very loose understanding of autism and ADHD to someone who’s world seemed to revolve around these diagnoses.
A friend said to me recently, “I don’t think you really understood what you were getting yourself into.” I think he’s right. I thought I could swoop in with my patience and research abilities and find a way to “fix” things. I tried so many things, and while I believe I did a lot of good…there are some things that aren’t “fixable” – they need to be accepted. Maybe acceptance is where I’m struggling.
I’m not trying to blame everything on Colin. Or Autism. Or ADHD. Trying really hard not to blame myself – I was doing that for months. Still do.
At the end of the day, you have to understand your limits. I don’t know what the answers are, but I decided that leaving was what had to happen. Rick and I have separated. I signed a year lease at an apartment complex not too far away – I didn’t want to move Robbie around during the school year, no matter which way we decided to go in the end. Ryan comes and stays with us every other weekend, which I love – I’m so thankful that Rick agreed to that.
I’m not sure what the future holds. I’m not sure that we’ll ever be able to go back to the way we were. But I know that my son needs his mom to be happy and healthy. (I could/should write about how the whole situation was affecting him as well.) He needs the mom he remembers that loves snuggling and singing and playing games with him. Not the mom who is always angry or tired or stressed out.
I still worry about the selfishness of this decision. Rick thanked me at one point for acknowledging that I felt the way I do and for speaking up and leaving vs. bottling it up and/or becoming abusive. Leaving is never easy – doesn’t matter what the situation is. I’ve had people tell me I’m brave, but I feel like a quitter.
I have so much to say right now – I swear I’ve written 3 blog posts in my head, just can’t find the time to get them on “paper.”
Sevenly.org is sponsoring a different charity each day this week. Today’s charity is Autism Speaks. With every t-shirt, sweater or hoodie purchased, $21 will be donated to Autism Speaks!
Rick and I each grabbed a sweater and we bought one of the t-shirts for Colin’s special ed teacher. What a wonderful gift to give someone that not only spreads awareness but also supports the cause through the donation. The more basic shirts are $22 – and with that purchase, $21 is donated! You can’t beat that!
