That must have been immensely painful and traumatic. I'm sorry you had to endure all that. You've done an incredible job surviving all this, many would not be able to cope. At least the abusive people are finally out of your life, hopefully you never have to deal with such injustice and evil again.
It sure was. Providing for and protecting my children got me to endure at any cost. Now I just want some time in the ring with these giants before I go down. : )
