My voice cracked and I was done. I handed the phone to my wife to read. When finished she said simply “wow, that’s your mother”. Still sitting teary eyed. I am so sorry for you!

Thank you Zanna. One of the worst things about abuse is the isolation. We are not alone. Thank you so much for your kind comments. It always encourages me so much to hear from someone who has read the blog.

It really helped to hear it from a first person standpoint, not as a therapist recounting stories from their patients.
