“They stay deep inside you and can affect your emotional and mental health,” she continued. I know this from personal experience. They are hard, and sometimes impossible, to ever forget.”
“Please don’t let him get to you any longer, instead realize that you are a strong woman and a beautiful role model for standing up and telling the truth, even if it hurts to remember it. Much love, and mad respect.”
