It was my turning point. And if you're an addict, you understand exactly what that means.
And I came down the street in a hoodie with glasses. It's hot in Arizona. I pulled my hoodie down, took off my glasses and stared at him and said, do you see me? And he said, yeah, you look really messed up. And I said, exactly. If I don't have this baby, this is gonna be my life.
I don't know if I have it in me to stop doing this because I like it too much, but this baby can change everything in my life. This baby can help me.
I didn't want somebody to be with me because I was having their baby. I wanted somebody to be with me because they loved me, not because they felt obligated.
When I saw the screen, I had immediately fell in love with Josh. this tiny little bulb inside of me. And honestly, that was like reassurance for me and more motivation to stay away from the people that were doing drugs or to stay clean.
I officially believe that being pregnant is what saved my life.
Trying to work, trying to stay sober, trying to do all these different things just was extremely complicated. So I had decided just to stop and I stopped going to school at that moment. I ended up actually getting my GED.
I had lost a lot of friends like deep down. really, really close friends. Everybody else was still in high school. Everybody else was still partying. Everybody else was still doing these things that I couldn't do.
You think about high school, and you think senior year is going to be the year. It's going to be the year that I graduate. All these different things that we think, senior prank, just prom, everything. I was watching all of my friends go through that and I wasn't.
And I felt so isolated and lonely because nobody understood why I had heartburn. Nobody understood why I couldn't walk two miles without catching my breath. Nobody could understand, you know, me complaining about how big my belly was. Like they didn't understand any of that because none of them were going through what I was going through.
He was working like 90-hour weeks. Like, it was insane. It was literally from morning to night. I never saw him. But he would come to my house with no sleep just to give me a kiss or just to give me a hug.
I had a friend. Her name was Hannah. And Hannah called me and was like, I met this girl. Her name is Cassandra. She is pregnant just like you are. She's our age. It's crazy. Her birthday is in October just like yours. I feel like you guys would have a lot in common. Plus, she's new to town, so she doesn't have too many friends.
You know what it's like to be pregnant and kind of feel like that isolation. I kind of just painted this whole picture of like a perfect friend.
And I was like, yeah, yeah, like that sounds awesome. Like I need a new friend. I need somebody that is going to be able to relate to what I am going through right now. So she made plans to get lunch with her. It was like an instant click. So if you're a girl, you know exactly what I mean. You either click with a girl or you don't. And I had felt this like whole connection with her.
Right away, they just got each other. She was very smiley and just seemed so down to earth. I would say something like, oh my gosh, this happened. And she'd be like, I know what you're talking about. And I was like, oh my gosh, you understand me.
We were excited and we absolutely like, oh, you should get this. Oh, you should get that. I already have this. It was actually like a really cool moment to have with a friend because I didn't have a friend that was going to go do that with me.
We stayed in contact through Facebook and text message constantly. The same exact things that we always talked about. You know, how are you feeling? What are you craving? What's been going on?
She always would be like, oh, my husband's calling me. She was constantly on the phone.
We were all kind of thrown off at the fact that she was like 17, 18 years old and she had a husband. His name was Edwin.
So that was something that like we all did go, huh?
