""Peer Pressure Got Me Pregnant"" It became a favorite saying of mine. I became a mom at an early age. I made a vow to the Lord to not enter into relations before marriage. I was afraid of the Lord & knew there would be consequences for my actions. Summer of 1984, I was allowed to spend weekends with my cousin & friend. We would sit, talk, & laugh all night. One night I was awakened & found out they were sneaking out of the house when their mom slept & dad worked night shift. I was afraid to go out. Eventually, I started doing what they were doing, except having relations. Two of us were virgins, two were not. Once outside, the boys came over & matched us up. I was paired with the star football player. For months we pretended we were doing what they were doing. They wanted play by play details, so I made up stories. I broke my vow to God. He grew tired of waiting. The ultimate thing occurred--a child was conceived. Giving birth to my daughter, my life has never been the same.

From a very humble beginning filled with hardships, the sixth child in a family of fourteen, I was born on a small impoverished farm on the Gaspé Peninsula, in Quebec, Canada, just a tiny dot on the map as I say, and had a very unusual and fulfilled life. Living in ten major Canadian and us cities, always accidentally, I met unforgettable people such as a Roman Catholic Cardinal, Representatives of Governments in Canada, the Governor of Florida, as well as meeting internationally known singers such as Elvis Presley and Julio Iglesias, a WWII naval officer, hockey players, wrestlers and many more prominent people. I lived through illnesses, three earthquakes, car accidents, robberies at gun point and knife point, the Italian and Cuban exoduses and through the 9/11 collapse of the Twin Towers by the terrorists, in ny. In my youth I even realized my dream of skydiving. I dedicate this book to Dr. Maria Pedro for saving my life in 2013, without whom there would not be a book to leave as my legacy to future generations, and to my dear sister, Françoise, who is always there for me.
