About the Book

Here is the beginning of my story. My name is Orlando Miller, also known as Landlord. I was born in the Bahamas. This book is filled with numerous sensitive moments of my early family life and our darkest struggles in the Caribbean. Being homeless, hungry, and spent for the first 10-11 years of my life thinking my stepfather was my real dad, but he was not.

Backstory:
Mom was in her early twenties at the time and wanted to go back to Jamaica to visit her family. I surmise this was her way of getting some downtime and giving my stepfather a little space as well.

However, while visiting back home in Jamaica she met a young 17-year-old boy. He was tall and handsome. My mom really liked the young man and he was fond of her as well, but he lied to her about his age. He told her he was 20; his height allowed him to pass for being older.
Well, as you would imagine the unthinkable happened; she had an affair with the 17-year-old and a few months later discovered she was pregnant. What a mess!
Her predicament was dire: she was married, already had 3 children back in Nassau and this kid has nothing to offer. She could lose everything. I imagined the thought of having to return to live with her mom in Jamaica must have also scared her beyond belief.
My mother realizing the terrible situation she had landed herself in concocted a plan to get rid of me.
This is the abandonment in the womb. She wrote me off and out of her life. But as we know very well, God had another plan. I think she believed because my biological father was only 17 that he would not be too hard to convince to support her having an abortion. She was wrong.
She went to the hospital to discuss having a procedure and called my birth father to bring her some money. After telling him why she needed the money he vehemently refused. He told her "No way would I help you kill my first child". And since she was unemployed and without any financial means to pay, she ended up carrying the pregnancy to term.
This was extremely difficult for my mom, she also suffered from being bipolar and many times disrupted the entire family when her mental state was inconceivably out of balance. What I have learned through my harsh struggle is love will carry you a long way and give you strength to get up and keep fighting for a better day when others need you the most.
I am so thankful to God for every moment of my life; the good, the struggles, and even uncertainty. If the devil had his way I would have never experienced any of these things. Lord You're My Strength!
