EVERY CHILD DESERVES...

EVERY CHILD DESERVES...

Every child deserves to know they are loved and wanted.
Every child deserves to be fed and clothed.
Every child deserves to be tucked in bed at night.
Every child deserves to be hugged — lots of hugs, daily.
Every child deserves a loving home...

But not every child gets the life they deserve.
Many children live in fear of being hurt...of being mistreated by people who claim to love them. Just a couple of weeks ago you learned from my guest, Charles Stecker, that some of these children do not live to see their next birthday.

Charles told about his 2-year-old brother Eddie who was murdered by their foster mother. Charlie, only 4-years-old at the time, was seriously injured while he tried his best to save his innocent little brother from this cruel woman.

So many children have been, and are, murdered or permanently injured daily from child abuse. Like Charles, I will continue to tell my story until no more children have to die or suffer at the hands of cruel, heartless people!

I survived some of the worst abuse and mistreatment inflicted upon me that you can imagine. I probably should have died, but instead, I lived many years without love, or should I say the 'proper type' of love. I was not wanted, except for the pleasures of others. I went hungry many, many times, and the few clothes I had were so thin I remember when it was cold outside, I was so very, very cold...But it wasn't always like this.

The first 2 - 1/2 years of my life was mostly pretty good. I was tucked into bed most nights, and I was hugged a lot. I didn't go hungry and I knew my mother loved me and wanted me. But that all ended the night my own father kidnapped me.
I was 3 years old when my life changed, forever.

To learn my full story, go to my website and check out the Bitter Memories series. The first in the series: Bitter Memories: A Memoir of Heartache & Survival is not easy to read, and it shouldn't be easy. There is nothing glamorous about child abuse, and what I lived through was some of the worst abuse a person can think of. But with help from some very special people — four separate personalities — I did survive. My abuse was so extreme I disassociated...
Also, the language will put a sailor to shame, but these words I heard on a daily basis. I did not sugarcoat the abuse. I did not try to make things sound better than they were.
As bad as it was, it was my life.

The second in the series, Drowning In Memories, written in two parts, includes other times in my life when all memories were not bad.

The third, Cutter's Revenge is mostly fiction since I took the bad and I lived my dream of how I wished my life had been IF things had been different. I also managed to get my own (safe) pound of revenge toward some who hurt me over the years.

For my fiction, and non-fiction fans, too, Trophy Murders takes part one in Drowning In Memories, stretches the truth while adding in a gang of serial killers to spice things up. It's an awesome read, even if I do say so myself, but my readers have also told me the same thing.
Enjoy!
