[Cash’s Story Part 1/2] Cash’s journey through foster care is a tale of survival in a system full of harsh realities. Torn from her home and separated from her siblings, she was thrust into a world of uncertain foster placements, each one a new battle with its own dark challenges. In a system that seemed indifferent to her pain, Cash fought back with resilience—finding success in school and finally forming a meaningful bond with her adoptive mom, Wanda. But survival comes at a cost. Now, at 32, Cash stands on the edge of revealing the truth of her childhood—an unflinching look at the system that failed her and the scars it left behind. Will sharing her story bring the closure she seeks, or will it expose even darker truths buried beneath the surface?   All chapters are available ad free on Patreon: https://patreon.com/BrittaniArd Share your story with Brittani.
