Story
This has been wry by one of Loraine's daughters she wanted to tell you their story here it is :Hi my names Ana-Laura I'm 13 years old and I wanted to share my story of me and my family. It all started when I was born my mam lived in Cuba and fell in love with a English man she came to England and thought that this man was the one. He flew to Cuba to marry her and then she went to England to start her life. After already having my older sister Claudia with a different man in
Cuba a few years before. Our little family was complete... well we thought so anyway this man wasn't all that he cracked up to be as I grew up I was always daddy's girl. We owned a hotel that was very popular and lets just say I got a lot of toys and gifts as did Claudia. But my dad had a very short temper and didn't treat us well as we speak Spanish he got very paranoid that we would be talking about him so we weren't allowed to speak any Spanish around him and as time passed I grew older but more daft he would shout and scream at me for no reason and then the next day he would go out and get me the newest most expensive thing on the market hoping it would make up for it which it didn't because money doesn't buy love or happiness. He would treat me my mam and my sister very badly we were always walking on egg sells around him because we never knew when he would snap. My mam took me and my sister to the cinema one day when we came back everything was gone our beds our sofas everything as it was a hotel we had hundreds of animals they were all gone as well. He had sold everything in a blink of an eye everything was gone. That wasn't the end of it he had took all the money from the hotel we were left with nothing but the clothes we were wearing. Little did we know our lives were going to change forever. My mam had no idea what to do or were to go she had too daughters on the street we went to live in a foster home type thing that took in not well treated families it wasn't the nicest place but I a
