"Abandoned by my mother, I was often clueless about my father's whereabouts, while his girlfriend-a cruel, angry, and violent woman 'looked after us'. She wasn't nice and would get angry with us kids and hit us. She would get angry a lot" You might think that this is just another harrowing story about an excruciating childhood but the difference is that Mez discovered a hope that transformed his life.
