Child Abuse Story From Donna S

by Donna S
(Ohio, USA)




I was one when it started and was five by the time it ended. My brother and I were together the entire time. I don't really remember all of it but I'll tell what I do.

We were both beaten, burned and electrocuted. We never had love, good food (all of it was spoiled) or fresh water. We both never had a good family until we met the people we're with now. I just wish it would've been sooner. I remember one time I was on top of a roof and I got pushed off. I broke my arm in two places and had to walk to the hospital.

I buried the rest. All I remember is that I called the person "Big John."

I'm delighted that you and your brother are in a safe, and it sounds like a loving, place. Your memories may unlock as you move through the various ages and stages of your life. If that happens, then you may need to seek out some type of counselling in order to deal with whatever repercussions come as a result. For now, simply relish in the love and safety of the home and the people you are now with. And continue to move forward in your life with education, friends and your new family. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

I'm glad you're safe now

Donna, I'm glad that your adoptive parents are with you and your brother now because they are so sweet for doing that; I just hope that your sickos for abusers get incarcerated for all those sadistic crimes that they committed against you guys and that you guys try counselling.
