Karah

Well, hello.

My name is Kara and I am from a small town called Owensboro, Kentucky.

And...

I am here to kind of just explain my story and my childhood and just to bring awareness to children with incarcerated parents and any child that has to grow up, you know, maybe not in a great home setting, so to speak, or childhood trauma, you know, and whatever face that might look like for them.

I'm going to tell the story.

I guess I'm going to go into it with all the like brutal things that may have happened at first, because that's going to kind of set the tone of how the whole storyline plays out, how it affected my mom, how it infected my dad and how it affected my two brothers.

So I am the baby girl of two older brothers who I absolutely adore.

I think the world of my brothers, they have been my true real life heroes.

Honestly, I don't know where I would be without both of them and to know what we have had to go through and for them to know what they have seen a little bit more firsthand maybe than I have and to see how they are today.

is a Mac is beautiful it is the most I can't I don't sometimes I can't even put it into words like how much because I just I'm still in awe I still sit back I'm like oh my gosh

Yeah, that's amazing.

Yes.

So my dad was in prison my whole life for 32 years.

I'll be 33 next month.

He was in and out of prison.

And he actually recently died.

It was a year ago, around about a year ago.

And I unfortunately did not get to make amends meet with him either.

So...

But that's okay.
