This is a true story. It is my story. No one could have possibly created the contents of these pages unless the incidents and occurrences were witnessed and lived. I did both.

To have endured these personal horrors and escaped without apparent mental impairment may well be a miracle in itself. I am a much stronger person for having lived my teen and young adult years in this terrible place
