"I stand up from the stool and exit the examination room with my head down. I am defeated. I leave the room without a sound. My vision is blurred from tears and I can barely find the door handle. I enter the empty hallway and close the door behind me. I take a few steps across the hall, turn my back to the wall and slide down until I am sitting on the floor. My head falls onto my knees. I begin sobbing into my hands. The questions echo in my head. Why? Why did you let them go? Why did this happen? How could he do this? How did this happen? Why didn't I listen?" Sexual assault is more common than you think. In fact, it is all too common and I would know because my daughter was sexually abused at the age of six, my son was a witness to some of the event and he was only nine years old. My story began as a journal I started during the early stages of my recovery, however after struggling with the aftermath, I thought more people need to know about the difficulties involved in the recovery process. Our family tried to find help any way we could but all we found was frustration because we could not find any material to reference during our healing. The hospitals, courts, lawmakers and therapists seemed to be more about the business than about the victims. These things need to change. Victims need a voice. If you are a victim, I want to tell you that you are not alone in your fight for recovery, even if it feels like you are. This crime has become a silent epidemic, but you do not have to suffer in silence. We need to shine a light on this crime and hopefully end this senseless tragedy.
