Abstract
I do not remember the exact year of my birth or the zodiacal symbol. My mother died while I was just a young child. Nevertheless, I still remember vividly that the early phase of my life, from my birth up to 1970, was quite wonderful. From 1970 to 1988, spanning 18 years, I lived in the horrible nightmares. After my arrival in the United States of America on September 1, 1988, my life has progressively improved. This is my story and a legacy of a Killing Fields survivor.
