Patty, I can truly relate to this heartbreaking story you have penned. I was abused the same way as a child. It let to me making very bad and stupid decisions in my life the older I got. The decisions I made were not bad to anyone but to me. I carried the guilt of him touching me in appropriately for so long and thought everyone knew it, but they didn't. It took me kneeling at a chair, asking God for His help and forgiving my dad, which was the hardest thing to do. I literally hated him for a long time before I asked God for His help. I couldn't find one thing wrong with your story. May God bless you and your family this Easter! Thanks for writing this. I know it had to be hard! love, Teri

First off, my dear friend, you've won. You've won major,
over the murderer of innocence by putting this story down in
black and white. He may have murdered the innocence,
but he left you alive and brave, creative and capable.
Take heart, however hard this proves to be.
And I know you're a winner and I believe I'm not the only one.
Have a grand weekend.

Patty, you are no different than many people who have been through some sort of trauma. I know as I too found there were many months of my life where my mind is still a blank. It all happened when my mother held a gun on me.
I found from you story that you were born the same year of my son. Patricia
