I never know how much my story may have helped someone unless they write and share with me as you did. For that I&#8217;m grateful. I feel privileged to hear back from someone, whether my story helped or disturbed them, because knowing helps me understand myself better. It&#8217;s always been my hope and desire that those who read my story leave with the knowledge of what can happen to a child who has been repeatedly abused during childhood. Not all children survive through dissociation. I was blessed to receive such a God-sent coping mechanism. I honestly feel heartbroken for those who can not dissociate while being abused. I was fortunate to survive. God never once left me.<\/p>\n<p>Wishing you all my best!<\/p>\n<p>Karen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comment by Loretta on 14 May 2012 at 5:01 pm Read your book and thought of you today.
