She's Only 15 — Shameek Speight

Standing here in front of you today, sharing my story; this wasn't supposed to be my reality. There's not a day that goes by that I don't ask myself; what can I have done different? Was there anything that I could have done to prevent this heartache; to prevent this tragedy? To wake up and feel whole again; and regardless of every possible scenario I came up with, there was always a way around it.” Yvonne said as she wiped tears from her eyes and composed herself. “I shouldn't be standing before you today. I shouldn't feel this pain; but because this is now my reality, I'm sharing my story with you.” She's only 15.
