I am turning 60 this fall and I see as my most important task in this life, shining my own light by sharing my story and living in my truth in the hope that it will help make a safe world for children to grow up in. I have a loving family of choice and am immensely proud of my adult daughter. I was 10 when I survived molestation by my grandfather who lived with us. Most of my adult life I have been on the path to healing, recovery and wholeness. It has only been a couple of years since I figured out the true truth of the family secret, that my father knew his father was a child molester all along. I remember the vague warning from him a year before the abuse started. The clarity through adult understanding was what I needed to end contact with both parents, having been groomed to worship him as the kind of parent who would never let that happen, while at the same time my mother's control, secret rages and psychological abuse made me the perfectly compliant, silent little victim - I was practically gift wrapped for a child molester who was given free rein to do as he pleased with me. Father's Day was just a couple of days ago and I am still emotionally raw and insomniac. Trying to be my own advocate for mental health care issues and encountering bias and parent-centeredness that I intend to stand up to by staying grounded. Being able to come here and be safe, understood and welcome means the world to people like me!
