I’ll tell about my husband instead of me.
He started off with two parents who didn’t care enough to plan so the kids would be properly taken care of. They scraped by until his father died of cancer. Then his mother became a shell of what little of a mother she was before. He and his siblings lived in conditions that would make any sane person sick and angry. They went hungry and unwashed. His grandparents stepped up. His grandmother gave him the support and loving care he craved. His grandfather provided stability and structure. Together they helped shape my husband for the better. Imperfect as they were they tried their best and my husband knew love because of them. His grandmother passed away last summer before our son was born and we believe his grandfather won’t be far behind. I’m so thankful for what their provided for my husband and a lot of who he is today is because of their influence and efforts.
