I must first start out by saying I am also from Lincoln lived here my whole life as did most of my family as you know people who grow up here usually stay and raise our own families, Lincoln is a Town of secrets and people who still worry what their neighbors think ,who and what they may be gossiping about at the local breakfast restaurant so I have a greater respect and admiration for your strength at such a young age, to speak out and the strength of your father for going the lengths he did. My heart was so heavy for your pain and struggles but also burst with pride for speaking out and saving others as you know that you did!!! I Pray that you find a different kind of peace in writing this book a peace in knowing that your not alone we are all praying for those days where your thoughts and dreams take you back. God Bless You and Thank You With much Respect Thayer G.

my heart aches right now reading your story. I’m sorry that you or any child would go through something so horrific and live with it everyday of your life. I can’t even comprehend how a human being could do such a thing, so I can not call them human beings. I don’t think they even deserve the word animal.
Your courage is undescribable. I admire your attack and fearlessness of putting yourself out there in order for others to hopefully not have this happen to them.
as a parent, i cringe at just the thought of something happening to my daughter so for those who think i hold on too tight. i say whatever to them. i’ll hold on and protect her to the best of my abilities. maria

It hurts me to hear of others who have been hurt and abused. Reading briefly about what happened to you, I can honestly say it doesn’t bother me in the least to hear that what they did to the man who hurt you. Good riddance. Thank you for coming forward with your story, it’s not easy to do. I may try to read it but honestly (as I’m sure happens for you) sometimes it is too difficult for me to read the details of another person being abused… it can be triggering. God Bless You for sharing your story and hopefully it helped you heal a little.

Wow! Very courageous of you. I hope that you are well-surrounded by love and understanding. Those of us who have survived need people like that around us. I congratulate you in your bravery and coming forth. Thank you.
