Surviving on food from dumpsters, in a Catholic orphanage to juvie - with Linda Forrester-Pitocco

Lynn and I discuss being in an orphanage at 5, then to California and from 7-9 in juvenile hall. 9-13 foster care where she survived sexual abuse, and then back into the home where she was taken from. Surviving with food from dumpsters, writing since she was 12, alcoholic parents, a dad who gambled, 6 siblings to being a nurse and working in the police force with their rape cases, then retiring. It was quite an adventure! IN HER WORDS: In my interview with you, I want those who will be listening eventually to know me more as the author who, through my life experiences have made me who I am today. From the dysfunctional childhood, through professional careers and as a mother and grandmother, grounded in my Catholic Faith, that life is precious and anything is possible. Even miracles.
