Being betrayed at a young age as we both were is something we never forget.
In my opinion there is no forgiveness for those who have raped us.
Clearly a child is never to blame for becoming the victim.

My best to you as well. Recovery is a never ending path that we follow for ourselves.

Stay well LadyHawkAZ. Stay safe!

You protected others in your home that night when you were 25.
