“My name is Hector Adame. Right now I describe my life as still being young but my past experiences I would describe my youngster life tough. My mom really had to make it out the gutter for me. She really had to help me and my poor siblings, you know, and she ain’t have much, you know. The gutter for me would be a house with two rooms that looks like a mud house, you know, and honestly a house that really isn’t reliable for a family of six, you know. I appreciate that my mom, when I was young she always had money to feed me and support me, you know? She always had money for me and to feed me but she had barely any money to feed herself and that’s what I always appreciate because I feel her as a mother, she has really thugged it out for us so I want to make it out the gutter with my family, especially my mom.”
