I found that with each word, sentence, paragraph and chapter I completed, it helped me come to terms with the abuse I endured. I can't read what I wrote because it scares me. If anyone can take anything away from this book - it is my hope that it is inspiration - inspiration for others to share their stories and hopefully get some peace in their lives. How I got through it was living day after day, help from family and my wonderful best friend, Dr. Johnson. (rip)
