Hi Karen,

I was about to read your words when the news of this girl who was kidnapped eighteen years ago was found. I read your reviews on the book Escape and other books. I really like what your opinions say. Anyways your story was very good. I read your book twice. Thank Richard Baer for me. Thank you for being you.

Dear Jess,

Thank you for your compliment on my reviews!  I try my best to share my opinions, thoughts, and comments in hope that we all learn from each other.  Abuse is abuse.  What happened to Jaycee is so sad, as well as what has happened to other victims of abuse.

I’m sure Dr. Baer will read your thankful wishes here on my blog.

I appreciate your thanks that I be “me.”  That’s the person I always hope to be!  Standing up as one woman who has experienced so much can be draining at times, but staying optimistic is my goal!

Karen
