“By God's grace, I've risen above every circumstance.” —Torrance
Torrance Wilson considered himself a normal kid. His life seemed great from the outside. He was born to a middle-class family in Houston, Texas, and spent his time attending summer camp, gaming, and making the honor roll at school.
One day, while searching for coins in his mother's purse to use at the arcade, his world flipped. Stashed inside was a crack pipe. He confronted his mother about the paraphernalia. She gently wiped a tear from his eye and told him not to worry—she was just holding it for a friend. Even at the age of 9, he knew it was a lie.
Four years later, Torrance's father left because of his mother's addiction. But he didn't just leave his mother; he left Torrance too. Torrance never forgot the day he overheard his father disown him in order to avoid paying child support. His heart broke.
