SPLIT DOWN THE MIDDLE
A Memoir of Survival, Secrets, and Second Chances
By Gregory G. Camacho
The Story I Once Swore I’d Never Tell
I was eight years old when my mother told me to go live with my father.
That moment split my life in half.
Split Down the Middle is the raw, unfiltered story of what came after—a journey through abandonment, gang life, addiction, fatherhood, and the slow, painful climb toward healing. It’s about growing up between Newburgh, New York and Puerto Rico, about the love that tried to hold my family together, and the secrets that eventually tore it apart.
But this isn’t just about what broke me.
It’s about what rebuilt me.
Told with brutal honesty and quiet grace, this memoir dives deep into the realities of childhood trauma, spiritual identity, and the long road to becoming a better man, husband, and father. It’s the story of learning how to love after betrayal, how to believe again after disappointment—and how to forgive, even when the apology never comes.
