And I don't know if she was just hitting herself in the night.

I really don't know how she was making it happen.

Yeah.

I was scared to go out in public thinking that somebody thought I beat her or something.

You know, I said, I'm not, when I say head to toe, I mean, arms, chest, legs, and that, or she was taking something to lower, maybe ironers.

I don't know to where she bruised easier because all she, all you had to do is barely.

I mean, if somebody walked up and like tapped her to like get to her attention, she might bruise there.

And she had never really been like that before.

And so I was like I said, it played hand in hand and was real believable.

I had no reason not to believe it.

You know, at that time, I'm like, why would you know, I never crossed my mind of why would somebody lie about having cancer of all things?

So time goes on and the youngest starts, you know, showing more signs and stuff of

not being okay.

Her health is, you know, lacking some.

And I want to say it was right before trying to remember when it came out that she didn't have cancer.

I want to say it was right before the youngest actually started going to the hospital really for, you know, seizure like symptoms.

And it came out that I finally had people pointed out to me and they were like, Hey,

you're not looking at this right like where's her paperwork you know where's this where's that and every time so some other people sort of who weren't as close to the situation we're seeing that yeah yeah yes and so during a lot of the reverse for a little bit she had had me so brainwashed that i'd quit i quit talking to my fam my side of the family for

Or at least my mother and stepdad.

I quit talking to them for a year, year and a half.
