In this episode, Sammy D shares a poignant story about her time in foster care, where she briefly found a sense of normalcy and belonging with two families. As she opened her heart to new beginnings with Tony, Johnny, Shelly, and Ed, and later Terry and Aaron, she experienced milestones of a typical adolescence—her first job, prom, and even a curfew.
However, the transitory nature of her life was a constant challenge, as sudden changes often uprooted the stability she craved. When unexpectedly forced to leave a home where she felt truly accepted, Sammy grapples with confusion and loss, underscoring the difficulties foster children face in searching for permanence and connection in a world full of uncertainties.
