The Stolen Years - Hardcover

by Rosemary 'Shoney' Rodriguez (Author)

This is a true unbelievable story. This is about my long journey through the roller coaster ride of my life. So many years stolen from me. It all starts from 1941 to 2006. With the things that happened in my life I'm happy to report the laws have been changed. First I'll start with the laws such as child abuse, domestic violence, child interference, rape and most of all the shelters for mother's and children so they can be safe and not on the streets. It took a long time and people had to suffer until these laws became effective and I'm one of them. It's also a memorabilia for the family. The history of the family roots and where I came from. Where I have been for 65 years, I hope my family enjoys my story. Who wouldn't want to know their family history? Everybody needs to write a story for his or her families. This is history to be passed from generation to generation. I thank God for giving me the knowledge and courage to write this book. I thank him for the journey and keeping me safe. I thank him for giving me 65 years, so I could finish my story. I pray one of my grandchildren will write the closure on my colorful life when I leave this earth.
