Chyna, 4 years old, LA
Chyna is a very energetic young girl who enjoys reading and drawing, and she is currently on the honor roll at school. Her favorite book is The Very Hungry Caterpillar, which she reads every night before bed, and she loves drawing sketches of her family and imaginary families. Despite her brightness and advanced skills that have led teachers to recommend her for gifted classes, Chyna has endured significant trauma. She witnessed her father murder her mother, an event that has left deep emotional scars. She is now being raised by her grandmother, who is still grieving the devastating loss of her daughter. While her grandmother tries her best to provide love and stability, the pain of losing her child while raising a young girl recovering from trauma is extremely difficult. Together, they are working to heal, even as they both struggle with the emotional weight of their loss.
