Help Mickey beat cancer
https://nypost.com/2016/02/13/ex-students-say-boarding-school-tortured-them-in-isolation/amp/ Hi my name is Mickey Scannell. I’ll tell you about my life in a summary. It seems like every thing I do no matter how hard I try there’s always a road block in my life and usually seems to be so much bigger then I’m able to handle. From being in foster care at a young age to becoming adopted, to only have that family stay a family for 5 years. Parents divorced at 8 and most things were not the same for me if ever we’re mentally. I felt so lost and like I didn’t belong anywhere . I lashed out a lot and my parents , no one in my family looked like me because I’m Hispanic. I could go on and on about feelings of being adopted and through the system. I could speak for kids everywhere about having divorced parents and how it breaks bonds with parents. But life goes on and from my lashing out I was sent to a abusive boarding school called Midwest academy . Located formally in keokuk iowa. Google search will simply tell you everything you need to know. I was there for a year and a half and probably experienced the most traumatic year and a half of my life. Ever since I’ve came back home through the most perseverance I’ve ever had to have I met god and really started to try and better myself as a person. I’ve had my slip ups like everyone does but I was searching for something where I finally felt like I belonged. I finally found a beautiful girl I get to call mine and three years later we had a beautiful daughter her name is Malaya. She is just two months old. I can’t explain the feeling I get when I see her smile but it’s the most precious thing on earth. She’s all that matters anymore I want to buy a house for her and watch her grow and be so happy. The reason why I made this is because on her two month birthday I was diagnosed with testicular cancer. This money will help me not put our lives on hold as I would be able to pay for the medical bills so that I’m not drowning in debt. The housing market is crazy and medical bills are so much. It would take me so long to swim out of this debt to provide a good life for my baby. Please anything helps god bless
