This letter is from an article published by The Independent. To see the full story, check out the link at the end of this article.
Dear Social Workers and Detectives,
I want to thank you for making me happy by giving me a new warm and safe environment. Now I have a home that is nice and have three nice meals a day. This is Marie Rose. When I was a baby I got hurt and you were on my case. When I was little I got hurt and wasnt going to walk at all. I couldnt walk because my spinal cord was broken and couldnt be fixed. So they asked how I got hurt in the ER. But he lied and said I fell out the bed. So then thats when you got involved and and solved my case and not letting the bad guy hurting me or anyone else.
I think that if you never helped me my life would still be awful and lonely. Because they might not help me, not need me, or they would hit me when I cried. But now Im much better. I now have a safe, happy environment. Im also around smart people. Now my life is much better. But the only thing that drives me crazy is our pet dog named Jo. She snores as loud as a vacuum and sounds like a old man.

I also have two cats their names are Gypsy and Mr. Fluffy. Gypsy is grey all over and has green eyes. She likes to play with yarn mice. She likes cat scratchers. Shes very curious and likes to watch what we are doing all the time. And Mr. Fluffy is a black and white cat with green eyes too. He likes to sleep on his beach chair all day from 10am to 5pm. But hes active at night.
I love pets but I love lizards. My favorite lizard is a bearded dragon. My class has a class pet that is a bearded dragon his name is Mr. Cuddles. I wish that you keep doing what you do to make the world a better place and make kids feel protected. I also wish that no matter how big or small the case is you will at least try and help the kids.
Love,
Marie
