Chapter 2, Family

In October 1997 My Mother "Cathy" and my two sisters "Isabel" and "Belinda" lived together in an apartment. My Mother went through hell(or so I've heard) dealing with my sisters dad. from infidelity to drugs. around November I believe my mom divorced their dad and somewhere along the lines met my dad Gonzalo Gonzales. Around December I was conceived. when my mother found out she was probably in shock because she had been on "the pill" but there she was pregnant with her first boy no less. On August 23 she then gave birth to me then proceeded to have her tubes tied so as to not have this surprise again. At the time we were living in a back house behind my Aunt Lela's house I don't have any memories from there but it was there my dad decided that he was going to leave, Leaving my mother alone again with her 2 daughters and newborn son(I was about 1 at this time) Again I don't have any memories from this time but I have heard some great stories of my sisters getting into their own mischief.

It is now August 23 1994 and my mother tells me that I will be meeting my baby brother in a few weeks at this time I found this to be the most exciting news in the world. On September 6th my mother went into the hospital as I had said before my mother had that operation so the pregnancy did have complications the umbilical cord had wrapped around the babies neck so the doctors resorted to a Cesarean section and my little brother Victor was "cut-out" into the world healthy and ready for his job to be my little brother, which translates to making my life a living hell, I kid I kid.
