Famosa expected her husband to work
in the lush fields of the San Joaquin,
but Ignacio Garcia chose easy
riches, moving methamphetamine
for a Mexican cartel. One day
he went away and never came back.
Irena grieved for a time, but met
a new man. A very jealous man
who suspected her of things she
never did. He killed her anyway.
END OF STORY
Except for the fact
that this happens to be
the girls’ fourth foster home
in six years, and Rosa can’t
remember her mother’s
face. Sad, I supp
ose.
But “sad” is a main
ingredient in every foster
kid recipe. We must choose
to accept it, or go off the deep
end ourselves. I could
easily dive in
over my head right
now. The others wait for
my story, but this will not be
a straight exchange. “I’ve been
with my dad, but he just
went to jail for DUI.”
