It would be fourteen years before she would make an attempt to reconnect with her children. The five of us would be rejected and turned out to the cold winter streets by our own family, leaving the five of us homeless, cold, and hungry. Threats to our lives by neighbors caused us to live in constant fear for our lives. The continued craving for the alcohol of the father would cause lack of food as the father sold food stamps in exchange for alcohol. Things escalate until the state removes the children permanently from the father. Years passed and the baby of the family unexpectedly dies at the age of thirty-two years. After thirty-eight years abusing alcohol, the father has an out-of-body experience that takes his spirit to the depth of hell to have a firsthand look of what this place of eternal damnation will be like. My prayers to the single parent are that there is hope and help. My help came from coming to believe in a higher power, and that higher power for me was Jesus Christ.
