    Asa a newborn, I was misdiagnosed with brain damage at birth and put up for adoption. My mother climbed over the walls of the facility and stole me out. “Your only child will be stupid.” They said when they caught her. She signed the papers. My mother gave me life twice. I give her everything I am.
