Even though you've taken it down, i'd still like to offer my advise. Your statement should contain and be primarily focused on exactly what it is called... statement of INTENT or PURPOSE. Focus on what you'd like to study, who you want to study with, what goals you have, etc. Focus on the future, not the past.
I have a completely separate Statement of Purpose that is exclusively academic and future-minded. Trust me, that base is covered.
I was referring to the "Personal Statements" required by some schools. These are supposed to be specifically personal narratives so that committees can learn about who you are as a person and where you've come from-- obstacles included.
