I believe that our parents brought us into this world like my mom and she's raised me. So I've just grown up and I just feel like when you get to that point, when your parents get to that point in age and they need somebody like we need to be there for our parents, no matter what it is, no matter if you know, my dad abandoned me, no matter if he lies to me about coming and picking us up and left us at the window, no matter what he has done. It's time for me to be there for my dad and, honestly, that's just firing me up right now.
Imagine growing up without a father, only to reconnect with him after years of addiction and personal struggle. That's the heart of Kerrie Ledford's story in this episode of 'The Real and the Raw'.
