It didn’t go well. I learned early on not to get in the line of fire. Another great life story and thank you for sharing!

The takeaway for me and perhaps others is not as much the positive message as it is a a fellow survivor’s story with which to identify. I find the most frightful characteristic of trauma is the isolation its effects bring – connection with others is like a light revealing the illusion of that darkness.
