Born into a poor family on the poverty-stricken inner-city streets of Philadelphia, Joey believed her life was over when at the tender age of just 13, she was married off to a Filipino sailor by her self-serving, alcoholic mother.Joey was convinced she was on course to endure a lifetime of disappointment. A mother by 14 and grandmother by 36, Joey's youth moved past her in a heartbeat. But despite the hardships, and with the help of her exceptional God-given beauty and spirit, she would rise to levels even Joey didn't believe were possible.Joey: A Memoir is a passionate and personal tale of struggle, survival, and resilience. It's the story of a stolen childhood and family betrayal, but also the story of how one little girl's hopes and dreams can manifest themselves in unexpected and miraculous ways.
