And amidst all that, we're still arguing.

We still don't see eye.

You don't like me and I adore the ground you walk on.

When I, up until 17, 18...

I literally could not speak anything about my mother that was not of love and light and compassion because I felt like if I went against that, something bad was going to happen.

Like, something not good could come from that.

But it's also like, I can't just be silent because she is not silent.

And we'll get into that, but...

Yeah.

So when the downfall of that, then I got a job and it was my first job, but she wasn't making a lot of money either.

So both of our checks were going into rent or going into the house.

I was giving her my checks.

And while we figured all that out, we figured out that my father, he was getting disability and because I was never adopted or I don't really know how the ins and outs of that went at the time.

All I know is I got the back pay and up until I got 18, up until I was 18, I got, you know, some money.

So the back pay was $2,500.

So we get the back pay and I don't even know how much $25,000 is.

I'm like, okay, can we pay rent for this month?

Maybe next month and buy some groceries.

She paid rent for a couple months and then she got her whole body done.

She got her entire body done.
