Hi Karen,

I am currently writing my life story based on mental health problems and traumatic events. I came across reading “A Life in Pieces” and was so shocked to know that you suffered so much traumatic abuse at such a young age. I admire your strength and courage. What you had experienced through your childhood was terrible. My heart goes out to you. I really feel for you and only hope you find happiness in your future. I just recently had a religious breakdown due to so much stress in my life and it has made me understand that faith is so important and with faith you can do anything in life. I wish you all the best for your future.

Dear Nabilah,

Good luck on writing your life story!  That’s great news!  My past may have been horrific, and life will always be a challenge, but I’m making the most of it! I’m happy and living life as I never dreamed possible. I’m always trying to move forward and making new friends!

Wishing you all my best! Keep on writing!

Karen
