Foster Child Memoirs

This Is Not A Sad Story. It’s a story about the effects of rejection and brokenness experienced by an abused child. And this child’s desire to conquer these feelings while maneuvering through flawed society, government, and religious systems. It’s reenactments of events during childhood abuse, followed by assessments of the events by the same person, as a healed adult. Will I ever be on the receiving end of care, protection, and love? Or is it only a dream for me but a reality for others? Can this hole in my heart, this place of emptiness, and longing within, ever become repaired?

Molding My Destiny is a touching memoir that will tug at your heartstrings and inspire you to overcome any challenge. With honesty and vulnerability, Patrice Foster shares her journey of overcoming adversity, from the difficulties of growing up in poverty and being abandoned by her father to the challenges of battling depression as a teenager.
