I am the 5th born of 10. I am of Mexican and Puerto Rican decent. I was raised by my grandparents in my late childhood and have been in foster care. Both my parents were substance abusers, but both have been clean for almost 16 years. I always wanted since the 4th grade to be someone important that can create change.]]> 2020-06-18 02:22:44 UTC https://padlet.com/vcastelan85/fwtb5cbr9y5px9g9/wish/631455564 vcastelan85 https://padlet.com/vcastelan85/fwtb5cbr9y5px9g9/wish/631456953 I met my husband when I was 15 and by the time I was 18 I had my beautiful daughter (that is now 16) and was married.
