But at this point before we move on I should probably tell you a little more about my Grandma Lyanna Barrett. She was my mama’s mama obviously, and she lived up in a place called Mount Harrison, New York. That was where my mama and the rest of her family (whatever’s left of it) are originally from. I had never even met my Grandmother Lyanna, let alone have been up to her place in New York because my mama had ditched her hometown and skinned-out back when she was just eighteen. Yeah, she just grabbed her cigar box of running away money and took off for the
I struggled through many hard times as a teenager. Growing up into a young adult was not easy for me. I fought through high school as well as at home. I worked very hard to try and achieve my high school diploma. I was taken away from my parents and put into foster care at age fifteen.

Everything began when my mother was diagnosed with colon cancer. As her condition deteriorated, the task of caring for my younger brother and niece fell on my shoulders while my older sister worked to support us. I also had to help my mostly bedridden mom care for herself. Consequently, I was extremely busy at home and therefore, often missed school.
Looking back on the semester and the essays I drafted, the one that stood out the most was the Literacy Narrative Essay. Even though me essay, “My Grandmother’s Pearls”, was the first piece of the course, it did help me learn a lot about my writing. With the purpose of assessing and reflecting on a personal experience having to do with writing or reading, this assignment required me to tap into a lot of memories. By doing this contemplation, I was able to feel like I discovered a directed audience as well as a specific point. Using the added aide of rhetorical appeals I feel like I achieved success in understanding the Purposes and Audience learning outcome.
About 11 years ago, I lost my mother. Going through my teenage years without a mom was pretty tough. At school, I would get bullied and I didn't do anything. I just let them beat me up. I didn't have anyone to take care of me, and love me.
My kindergarten teacher always called me the mother hen of her class. She called me that because I would always make sure others were doing what they were supposed to be doing and I would make sure that everyone was okay and happy. For example, if someone got sick in class, I would constantly ask them if they needed anything, and I would get it for them. Since then I’ve always wanted to be a nurse; I want to help others. There are many personal experiences I can relate to nursing.
I am American, Hispanic, Jewish, and Catholic. This combination has molded my values, perspectives, and behaviors. Since my parents are divorced, the strong relationships that I maintain with my two grandmothers have formed the roots of my identity As two of the most influential women in my life, my grandmothers have shaped my interpretation of the role of a woman. My Peruvian grandmother, Papo, embraces traditional roles with grace and elegance.
Older people tell stories all the time about their childhoods and what it was like back then, but do people really listen? I find myself asking this questions when I think of my own grandparents. It makes me wonder if I really know them or not. My Grandma Shirley is a 77 year old outgoing woman who makes everyone laugh. Born in the 1940’s definitely allowed her to experience many aspects of life that I wasn't able to experience myself.
“Your grandma has cancer,” These four words were very difficult to swallow at a young age. Dealing with death so young can be very confusing and difficult to cope with. Not only is losing a family member tragic, but losing a family member who you cared so much about can really take a toll on your life. I know it took a toll on me when I lost my grandmother. It still does till this day.
I am finding it difficult to accurately document the life of my grandmother mainly because I haven’t been opportune to meeting her. However, I do have an idea of the person she was based on what my mom and my uncles have told me. Hearing about her fascinates me, and leaves me in craving to want to meet her and too just simply converse with her about my silly topics. I am constantly bombarded with images in my heard about what the relationship could’ve been like, between my grandmother and I. I see glances of her character through my mother and the sister to my grandmother; from the way they cook to the little quarks they tend to do. Before I go on a tangent let me introduce my maternal grandmother; she goes by the name of Louisah Ntlatleng
The interview I had with my grandmother was extremely inspirational and shed light on some of the experiences my grandmother went through that I never knew about. Before the interview, I had some sort of an idea of what her life was like due to the countless stories that my mother would tell me about my grandmother but, it wasn’t until I was able to sit down face-to-face with my grandmother that I finally understood what that time in her life was like. For example, when my grandmother lied about having experience using a sewing machine; I didn’t know that in Mexico her family was too poor to even come across a sewing machine to begin with. Another example is how, President Ronald Reagan gave the illegal immigrants at that time amnesty, which allowed my grandmother and the rest of the family, which includes my mother, to gain citizenship in the United States. Had it not been for President Ronald Reagan, my mother could have possibly been deported and I would have never been born a U.S citizen.
