“You inspire me. You pick me up when I need it and you Love Like A Mother! Thank you for continuing to support the @allianceofmoms For supporting this campaign and our youth. In doing so, you are supporting the mission to build bright futures for young parents who have experienced foster care.

Kelly has opened up about her decision to set up the organisation and said she finds a small bit of solace in giving back. “It has allowed me to have purpose, and to see what’s in front of me,” she told People magazine.
She also spoke about the pain she felt following her son’s death. “Waking to the reality that my son is gone. It is hard to articulate this kind of pain. Where you can somehow function, but you are not entirely sure how every movement of your body is doing its job,” she said.
Kelly added: “We had no idea when we took him into the hospital that 12 hours later, he would not make it. My 9-year-old son George died. Died of Covid and viral health/meningitis-symptoms-signs-menb-vaccine-7394355>meningitis.”
