samantha c. ashley Biography

I grew up in a not so good adopted home. I was abused and treated no better than a dog. My brothers and sisters and I were all adopted together but as we grew up and began to have personalities of our own we were all split up into different homes and lives. I was eventually put in a facility for teens until I was eighteen years old at which time I found my biological parents and moved in with them but it was too late I was strung out on drugs and alcohol and didn't care about anyone or anything. When I was 20 years old I met the man that would later become my husband. I had no where to go so he told me to come live with him. When I finally did move in with him he told me that he cared about me and that I had a full life to live without drugs and alcohol. He supported me through it all and eventually I did quit using and sobered up. I have now been clean for 8 years and I am writing poetry and working along with being a full time wife and mother to a beautiful seven year old little boy.
