“She was no matters, she was always there for me in the wrong in the bad. She was the only one helping me when I had my 2 babies. She helped me with everything. I know God will compensate her very much.  She was a very good mother, no matter who thinks bad about her. I will never think nothing bad about her no matter what. No matter what she struggled for us. No matter what, she did the best for us and I am not god to judge her. Only god could do that.”
