This is the non-fiction account of my life: of my memories of childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, illness, happiness, and incredible sadness. Of how I nearly died, several times - but chose not only to live, but to SURVIVE My story is at times heart wrenching, at times funny...but at ALL times the truth, as I remember it - of many of the traumas and the joys of my life - of the events and circumstances that have made me who I am so far, but NOT who I WILL be, as I am ever changing with every experience I have in this life...and I am not done living it...not yet... I invite you to come in and get to know me...one memory...one bleeding of my broken heart at a time... Maybe my sufferings and survival can help you to survive your own...if so, then my suffering will not have been for nothing.
