She didn’t come with NOISE.
She came with KNOWLEDGE.
She built protection where there was DANGER, Clarity where there was CHAOS,

For that, you have my Highest Honor, as I continue to walk forward

Cause of them not doing they jobs in time i lost my niece to the SYSTEM after going to them since August of 2022 to get help but a week ago they took her from me and now they want to send me all these Apologies after the damage is done. Then i asked them for a log in sheet to show the courts that i tried to get legal help an that i did not kidnap my niece and they can't even much do that for me considering its their fault.
