She skipped the meals. She folded away the dreams. She never said a word about it.
What I Gave You, I Never Had is for the mothers who gave up their own childhoods so their children could keep one, and for the daughters who grew up inside that love, feeling its weight long before they could name it.
This is a story about the love that asks for nothing and gives everything.
If you are a mother, or the child of one, this book is for you. Her light did not go unseen. Carry it forward.
