mamazilla said...: barb - honestly, it's very fuzzy to me. i'm the third of four children. my ldest sister is my half sister. my father was a widower when he met my mom. after they married, my brother was born in the PI. then, i think they immigrated here. i remember my mom telling me that they went to school in uptown. then i was born here. after i got relatively better, my parents and siblings went back to the philippines. shortly after that my little sister was born. i got sick again and had to come back to chicago to see my surgeons. we only went back to visit once a year after that.; 8:12 AM
