A MUST-READ FOR SURVIVORS OR FAMILIES !!!

I read this book two years ago, and it is a story that I think would help both the "Survivors" of incest and the families of the "Victims" to reach a definite understanding of how a child feels when this happens to them. I am now a volunteer for the Center For Child Abuse Prevention in my city.

Well written and inspirational, I read it in one sitting.

As a suffer of AIDS, my life has new meaning since I was told that I am HIV positive. I want to simplify my life. Donna Friess' book has given me courage and a new insight into making my life count. It is my most valuable possesssion.

Amazing Courage and Strength, Indeed a Trimuph

Donna Friess shows several things on incest: 1. The cycle of Abuse must end; 2. There is healing from such horrendous torture; 3. There is hope, peace, healing, and life after incest. After Donna experiences the ultimate betrayal by her father, she gives hope to incest Survivors; she lets them know that life isn't about incest and being a victim. Life is about living, loving, and trimuph of the human spirit. I highly recommend this book to any incest Survivor.
