“Daddy was an idea man who never quite found a way to make a living with his ideas, but I never doubted his love for Momma. At the same time, I looked around the cabin with its fence-like walls and felt sorry for Momma; she deserved better than to have spiders and mice going through her stuff.”

“It's perplexing how family members claim their undying love for us. They can say whatever they choose. Their actions and behaviors don't match their words. There is an imbalance in sibling and parental relationships. There are distinct discrepancies in what they claimed (saying they did nothing wrong) versus my reality of what took place (abuse). LOVE AND ABUSE CANNOT COEXIST.”
