My Father,The Hero
Hero ( noun)- Just look under this word and I can guarantee you that his name will be there. My father Jim, isn’t like your ordinary American dad. He’s far from it. My dad always been a hard worker ever since I can remember at the age of four. He’s someone who’s never given up on well…anything.

My Mother, the warrior
My mother is like no other mother living on the face of this planet. Look up to the word 'Warrior made of steel' in the dictionary, and I am surprised that her name is not the definition when it should be. She has seen, lived, and breathed it all since the moment I took my first breath. Surprisingly, I was born a twin, but he died in utero. While I survived but was born severely premature with a tiny percentage of living, facing deadly diseases, infections, even death a few times back in the mid-eighties. A good portion of parents HAVE abandoned their own child at the hospital because they could not face their child's gruesome outcome. No. Not this woman. My mother was at the hospital talking with doctors, nurses, knowing medical terminology, continuously writing many notes, and was there all day until the next day, very early in the morning.
