I would just like to say thank you so much Mark for allowing me to share my story. This was the first time I have ever had the courage to publicly share these very personal experiences. I am completely humbled and overwhelmed by the incredible support that I have received. I cannot express how grateful I am to each and every one of you who took the time to reach out and share your experiences. This has truly touched my heart and soul. I’m so inspired by all of your strength. Thank you for listening without judgement or pretension and sending your love unconditionally. You have given me so much strength, wisdom and peace. Never underestimate the the difference you can make in someone’s life. From the bottom of my heart I love and appreciate you all. - Bonnie ❤

How did the doctor who operated on her at age 5 not raise red flags?? Time and time again, the system has failed her. So heartbreaking.

The fact she has never touched any drugs or any substance after all of her horrific abuse and torture is absolutely miraculous to me, she’s extremely strong mentally and she will definitely get through this and therapy will help even more, Bonnie……You are absolutely incredible. You are truly a rare one ❤

Does anyone else see a classy, loveable lady? She deserves happiness.

Her mother failed her children my God. This was tough to listen too. I wish her nothing but happiness and healing. Hope therapy goes well.

That mother is really the root of all this horrific shit. Happens again and again and again to this woman who seems like a sweet person

I feel her pain. My uncle abused me sexually and my mom which is his sister didn’t want me to press charges. It was weird. How can you protect your brother over your only child?

You never had a mom. My heart breaks for your childhood, but I am amazed at your will to survive. Sending you love and strength.

Her mother, father and stepfather should be prosecuted and brought to justice and made to pay for the terrible crimes they committed against her and her siblings. How can they be walking free and probably still abusing children. There is no justice here . Heartbreaking

It's so disgusting how common child sexual abuse is. It's ridiculous! This was a heartbreaking story and is just awful how many people failed her and her sister as a child. I hate these monsters in this world. I wish them all so much torture, way more than they have caused their victims 😡

I don't understand how this incredible person can still seem so human after everything she's been through. Remarkable strength.

Wow, never judge a book by its cover. Just looking at this woman. I would never think that she’s been through this much.

If she had surgery from sexual trauma why didn't the doctors step in ????! Why are we constantly failing abused kids, makes me so angry

So her mother knew that it's wrong what her husband did, because when another man molested her, she got her brothers to beat him up and reported to the authorities. But when her husband did it, she protected him instead. Absolutely despicable.

I've been watching these Soft White Underbelly videos for a while now, and this has to be one of the saddest one I've seen thus far. I, as well, endured childhood abuse and trauma, and my parents also neglected and abandoned me. My childhood was hell. It's hard to watch because it's relatable, but it is also, in a way, very inspiring. Bonnie is such a beautiful soul. You will make it out of all of this.

She’s so inspiring. She took the worst situation imaginable and turned into a loving person. Wish you the best in therapy, it’s work but so worth it.

This is the worst story of abuse I have ever heard and I have heard some shit. She was so brave to stop the cycle of abuse and the courage to change how her kids were raised. I know how it feels to be not wanted not loved and I'm so glad I got counseling. You can do it your very worthy of the best and love.

Bonnie you are not fucked up, you are beautiful and brave, you ARE a great success, your grandson is right ❤

Just when I think I have heard the most horrifying story of child abuse on this channel, someone comes along that has an even more horrific story. Everyone failed this woman and her siblings. Mainly her mother. My God how could she allow this to happen?!?! I am so glad she’s going to go to therapy and hopefully really start healing. Best wishes to you sweet Bonnie.

I have no words. I cannot believe that children can physically and mentally survive this and go on. The human spirit is strong. You have true grit and are an incredibly successful person - a true inspiration for resilience. I hope you thrive.

Jesus,, her mother is truly a disgusting piece of shit!! I hurt for her!!! Some women just should NOT have children!!! And the dad and step-dad are depraved heinous disgusting men as well!! I'm so happy you're gonna get therapy. Your so brave Laura and thank you for sharing your story. Believe me by sharing your story you are at the very least gonna help 1 person if not 100,s. Your voice is powerful. Mark another great interview ❤ Bonnie I'm sending you so much love strength and light❤️💪🌟

Her Mother was complicit. My Mother is still married to my abuser. At 52 I had a mental breakdown. Sigmund Freud - 'Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.' I would urge her to seek good longterm therapy. Best wishes Bonnie , please take care of you now xo

As heartbreaking and horrible as Bonnie's story was to hear, I am in absolute awe of her courage and glad she put this on the record. The depth of the abuse was sickening and incomprehensible, but I'm sure she is not alone. I hope people in similar situations see this and be emboldened to speak out. You may have helped others, Bonnie. Peace be with you.

The pain in her voice. Well done for seeing help and speaking out. I'm sure u will inspire so many. ✨️

I was sexually abused by 3 men in my family. I'v never told this secret until now.. two of the family members have died horrible deaths. The other has lost his legs, the use of his arms and is no longer mobil. I guess that is my relief of the pain . The Lord is always been my savior to know him is to love him I know that he loves me unconditionally even with all my F-ups in life. I've never been able to hold onto a relationship. I'm in my late 50's and will always be alone.. Thank you for sharing beautiful lady. We are survivors.. God bless you always and forever..

Amazing she survived. If it’s not to private, I’d love to see a part 2 after she’s been in therapy. To see more of her healing.

I cried listening to Bonnie. Her story is a lighthouse beaming in all directions, helping people navigate their lives. To have survived the trauma and to articulate the pain, Bonnie, you embody courage. Your words have illuminated my life. Thank you so much for speaking on Mark's channel.

Her mother should be in jail.

Her life has been a complete nightmare. I truly pray therapy brings her peace. Shame on all the sickening adults who assaulted her or turned the other way. Those are monsters.

It never ceases to amaze me at how quickly these people get into the darkest parts of their lives when someone is willing to sit and listen to them. My heart goes out to everyone who suffering.❤

Bonnie, I’m blown away by your resilience. I’m so glad you’re going into therapy. I think it will be really hard. Watching you speak about the horrors you endured is such a gift of strength to anyone having to deal with trauma. But you deserve so much of that strength for yourself. And OK not to be as strong as you have been. OK to break down. It sounds like you’ve given so much love out that that love will be there for you to hold you up when you need it. Wishing you the best as you heal through this. Thank you so much for sharing. You have no idea what it means to those of us caring for others who have experienced trauma. I’m filled with hope.

I have so much empathy for you. Years of living in an environment of active trauma leaves one with CPTSD (complex PTSD). I’m also in my 50s and it’s nearly impossible to get this particular monkey off your back. Know this: you are an incredibly strong human being. I can probably count the number of people who had such severely traumatic childhoods, yet managed to STAY AWAY from hard drugs/addiction/prostitution… well, I could count them on one hand, Please know that you have helped me! (Although I’m not entirely sure I count as a person.) You’re an INSPIRATION! Therapy does help, but be very careful to choose a therapist who is a good match for you. Lot’s of mental health providers claim to be “trauma informed,” and I strongly suggest you ask what that means to them (how they approach CPTSD, any special training or certificates in trauma therapy, etc.). Far too often I see therapists who want to talk (and talk and talk and talk) about the specific stuff that happened to you. This can be useful up to a point, but I’m sorry to say revisiting the horrendous traumas you’ve survived can often make your life WORSE. The best kind of therapist will see that due to chronic exposure to stress and danger, your physiology has been effected. The only way to make a better life for yourself is by learning how to regulate your body AND your emotions. There aren’t many therapists who understand this. Here a a few that do that can really show you the path to being the person you’ve always wanted to be and living the life you’ve always wanted to live. The first you can find on KZfaq as the Crappy Childhood Fairy (Anna Runkle). She is extremely generous providing free content on KZfaq and she is perhaps the first (only?) person I’ve found who has a profound understanding of CPTSD and a very straightforward, practical approach to show you the path to healing. Within her videos, she recommends various writers/clinicians who you can trust not to take you on a wild goose chase. The work of Dr. Gabor Mate is a mix between academic and accessible. He has a great deal of insight into not just the emotional but physical (in terms of personal health) consequences of trauma. And I’m blanking on his name, but the guy who wrote “The Body Keeps Score” is a very well known and well respected scholar of the effects of trauma. None of the people I’ve suggested here write pop-psychology “self-help” books. All are serious people with ideas worth your consideration. I’m so sorry for the looooong response! I know you because I *am* you, and I, too, just want to help. I especially recommend the Crappy Childhood Fairy. At 52 (don’t worry! I’m older!), you deserve to have the experience of feeling seen/known/loved. Sending you buckets of love and well wishes as you begin this crucial chapter of your life . ❤

I could never understand why someone would ruin a little girls world..the way this lady is talking feels like all of this is still fresh.. bless her soul she will never heal from this

I too was sexually abused by my dad, step dad and a cop that was my mother's befriends husband, My mother also physically verbally and mentally abused me. I still have reoccurring nightmares and I'm 63. I'm so sorry this happen to you 😢 my mother and I didn't speak either she is dead now and unfortunately that gives me some sort of Pease and closure! You are so strong. We have a lot in common because I worked as a Nurse in the hospital and am a care giver as well. You got this! I will keep you in my thoughts, heart and my prayers!

You inspire me. To be so calm and strong and never addicted to anything after all that awfulness, it’s beyond inspiring. Thank you for being brave and doing this.

Bonnie, you ARE an inspiration! You are hands-down one of the strongest people I've ever heard Mark interview. You went through literal hell and you fought your way out of that and created a life for yourself, and here you are reaching out to help others with your story. You are a living example of the power of the human will to survive and triumph. ❤🙏

How can a little girl have to have surgery at 7 for sexual abuse and not be removed from that house. I really hate cps for all the harm they cause taking children away for little to no reason and I hate them for not taking children away for this reason. That mother should do jail time.

This is horrendous. Such a sweet woman. To endure physical trauma from the sexual abuse as well as the psychological trauma :'(

This lady is a hero…..tough as a nail and refuses to be broken, despite all the odds being stacked against her in life. While this was extremely hard for me to watch, and I cant even imagine what it must have been like for her to live through, it’s people like her that give me the motivation and strength to take life head-on in the toughest of times. Sending lots of love, and thank you.

This woman is incredible. Absolutely the strongest woman I have ever listened to. And I've listened to a LOT of stories. She is such an inspiration!!!

Bonnie dear I too am a survivor, yet I find myself grateful that it wasn't to this extent isn't that crazy? I fell into drugs and alcohol at 13. I'm 50 now, and STILL fd up. I never dealt with it until here recently. May God be with you and bring you peace and joy all your days!

Her story is heartbreaking. I hope she gets the help she needs. She is a remarkable lady

Bonnie, in No way are you a mess. I admire you for your openness. The gentle tone of your voice. The relationships you have with your loved ones. All are examples of the success you are. These are all reasons you Must remember if ever you feel like you’re f’d up. I am So proud of you for your honesty and choosing to be the opposite of the way you were taught. Without a doubt, I Know you’ve helped More people than have commented. You’ve helped individuals who were victimized to know there is hope for them. I’m excited that you and your sister will begin working in therapy because you’re going to experience a freedom you never imagined. I’m happy you have one another. I’m praying for you and your loved ones. I hope you’ll come back to update us on your life. Sending you bear hugs and cheers and prayers from this Michigan grandma. ❤️❤️❤️ Congratulations on your long marriage!!! 👏👏👏

IT IS ONE OF THE MOST HORRIFYING INTERVIEWS I HAVE EVER LISTENED TO. It hurts to hear that. Cannot imagine how strong and resilient she and other survivors like her are. I wish you EVERYTHING you have dreamed of. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤❤ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing! Bonnie, you are so far from "F@cked up"! You are a beautiful gift to this world! I cannot even fathom the childhood that you endured, and you have done (and continue to do) the absolute best you could have!

My heart is filled with sorrow that there was no one for you to reach out to for help. I'm sending Healing Prayers your way for a great! rest of your Life.

She had a terrible childhood…brought tears to my eyes. When she repeated what her grandson said to her I started crying even more. Thank goodness he said those uplifting beautiful words to her she deserved to hear it.

You helped me. Thank you for being brave and fighting for yourself. I believe you and I am so sorry they did all that stuff to you. And especially that your mother fed you to the monsters. The world is a better place because you are in it. I wish we could hear more about your relationship with your husband.

Wow, what a powerful story. The strength and courage you had to not give in to the ugliness you’ve endured your whole life is incredible. How parents can look the other way and not protect their precious children is insane to me. Proud of you for your strength to overcome. Praying for your peace and well being.

This was one of my favourite interviews and I have watched most of them. Bonnie is an absolute warrier. A childhood of trauma and suffering haunting her throughout adulthood, this beautiful soul is a fine example of a strong survivor, she has stopped the cycle of abuse and just in time to be such a wonderful inspiration to her grandchildren. I send Bonnie the best wishes and hope she does as Mark suggested and use it as a golden opportunity to finally "unload." You deserve all the love and peace. Thank you for sharing your story, you will have helped many. ❤❤❤

This woman deserves so much love. She’s absolutely amazing.

As someone who has started therapy a number of months ago, I was trapped, stretched and exhausted, now I am so much more free, give time to myself and can sleep far better. Mark really hits it on the head with just tell them everything. First session, I went in the door apprehensive. It's hard for me to open up about my feelings and I am usually a little cagey on subjects that make me look vulnerable. But I told myself that this was it, the turning point and to just let the person in. I am glad I did. Look after yourselves first, then others when you can carry them too.

How could her mother allow all that to happen? She needs to be in jail with the men that did it

Sending you much love, Bonnie! You definitely are an inspiration to not let this stuff ruin your entire life. I'm 50 and just started therapy as well.

Omg!! This is sooo heartbreaking! Bonnie, you are the epitome of strength and survival! All women need to hear your story and hear the message you give of needing to self love, learningto find respect for yourself. I am messed up too and a survivor of sexual abuse in very early childhood. These types of abuse hurts the child to the soul that does not heal all the way! I hear and feel your pain! I pray that to God that you and all sexual abuse survivors find peace. You are doing a phenomenal job in life, be proud! Thank you for sharing!

Bonnie, thank you for sharing your story. I hope you find peace in your life

CPS came to her house to investigate child sex abuse, and because her dad was hidden, they just left? That makes zero sense.

What the actual? How can this be so prevalent, it’s unbelievable, what is wrong with people? You are such an inspiration to other victims. Anyone watching this who has being abused and kept quiet, do everything you can to get these monsters banged up.

Connie , if you read this, thank you. You had said you shared your story, in hopes that it wouid help one person. I wanted you to know that it helped me. I think you are amazing and courageous. I heard your message loud and clear about not giving up. My childhood was extremely traumatic. I survived neglect, abandonment, and abuse, including rape at age 3. I was diagnosed with CPTSD and more recently with Lupus. On those dark days, when the pain makes me want to give up, I'll remember your light Connie. 💙

My heart goes out to all the kids that's got sexual abuse getting sexually abused her story really broke my heart

Her story got me in tears 😢 life is so unfair ….I just don’t understand 😔😔

This is the first story I’ve ever had to turn off. When she described the surgery she had to have and I stopped to think about the severity of that and at that age- and from being abused by the person who is supposed to protect you… I just burst into tears. How can a human be that selfish? To put their sexual desires before the health and well being of their small child. It is so heartbreaking to think of what this woman and so many countless others have endured. To know such pain so early in life. Bonnie, thank you for sharing your story. I know it will help countless other survivors and it is something we need to talk about, no matter how uncomfortable we are. Something needs to change in our society. This is something too many people go through that has such devastating consequences on the victims but usually none on the perpetrator. Sending you so much love, Bonnie.

I am so deeply sorry for what you've went through. I can't even understand how you managed to stay away from drugs, how you stayed alive! You must be so strong! You are without doubt going to help people. You were dealt two parents who are absolutely sadistic. The fact that your mother failed you so deeply is unbelievable. I'm sure that you've been a great mother to your two girls. Often it's the most fucked up people who love the most. The thing your grandchild said says it all. You're amazing! I'm so happy that you're going to therapy finally. You're a success! Bless you, you beautiful woman! Lots of love and positive vibes from Norway.

why is her mum and step dad not in prison?

Oh my goodness this poor woman and her siblings. My heart breaks for them. 😢. What a horrible person and I can't believe her mom is still with him! Praying for her and her family. 💜🙏

Her strength is beyond words! thank you for being here and sharing your story❤❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you so much Mark and Bonnie. I made an appointment after watching this. I'm 49 and I know there is still help and hope.😢

Bonnie I send you so much love & respect 🙏 I am extremely sorry for what you have been through

How could her mother let that happen again with a step Dad?!

Wow. I’m at loss of words. This woman and her siblings were robbed of their childhood and any chance they had of freedom. How cruel that just little babies couldn’t even come to their own mother for help. How can time and time again the system fails children and can’t save them. I’m so sorry for what you and your siblings went through. I’m proud to see how u have recovered and stopped the generational abuse. We love you❤.

How did she have bladder surgery as a five year old and go back into that home? That is absolutely horrifying how many people failed her 😢

You beautiful woman...we need you here! Just this interview helped me in minutes...you can do such amazing therapy for so many people! You got 100000000000 percent!

There is something so special about her-for her to sit there with a sound mind, in spite of all of the horrific trauma, is a real miracle. The resilience to overcome what she has speaks volumes about her purpose on this planet. I wish her so much good and all of the healing ❤❤❤

So beyond proud of you Bonnie. You are the strongest and beautiful person ever. I will never even be able to fathom what you went through. But the fact that you were able to turn it around, become a better person for your self and your family is so powerful. I look up to you so much you are a hero and survivor.

Such a brave woman for telling her story and a true survivor, so strong 🥰

Bonnie I have no words , I truly hope you manage too find your peace one day , bless your heart ❤️

How sad for a little girl to suffer so much, you are so brave to share your story and doing so helping others. ❤

You're so brave to share your story. It's such a heartbreaking one.

I'm so sorry for what you went through. How in the world is their such evil... The cruelty in the "mom" and step-dad is unimaginable. I cried hearing your story Bonnie. Made me want to go back in time and rescue the three of you. And those two pos's are still out there as nothing happened. I hope they have an awful life, and that karma strikes them good. I think you are so strong Bonnie, I'll take your words with me. I've also decided to never be like my parents, thank God we had the strength to break the cycle. I'm also so happy that you'll have therapy, and together with your sister, that will be so good for you. Hard at first but so so helpful! I hope you can bloom into yourself now, get back to your hobbies or new ones, it's time❤ I hope Mark will do an update with you in 6 months or so😊 Thank you Bonnie!

Thank you for sharing your story. Words can't express how proud but yet sad I am for you. I hope you have peace today ♥

Thank you for having the courage to tell your story. Your mother did not deserve you or your sister. You are an inspiration just hearing the terrible things you went through growing up and the bad things your parents made you do ie. stealing and fighting and that you choose not to follow in their footsteps in living your life and not to bring up your children up this way. You choosing to not be a victim and not take drugs and alcohol and to live a decent life after all you have been through is an inspiration. Good luck with your therapy it is time for you and your sister to heal from this torment. Your story will help many and thank you.

Thank you Mark for creating this platform for these people to share their stories . Every time I watch one of your videos I realize more and more how this world counts so many vicious , sick perverts who take advantage of children . Shoutout to this woman to have the strength to share her experience and I pray for her to find peace and happiness .

For sure one of your best interviews Mark. A brave woman that overcame so much, Thank you both for an inspirational interview.

At first I was so speechless just listening to everything she mentioned, the harsh moments and memories she and her siblings had to go through. No one deserves to go through that kind of Life. I really feel so sorry for her and her siblings. It's a real crazy world out there. She may encounter Post Traumatic Stress Disorders, I wish and pray for her cure and rehabilitation. I certainly hope that this brings Awareness to people like her who is seeking Help, God Bless Her.

I am so sorry you had to go through all of the chaos and trauma, Bonnie. This story really hit home for me and helped me understand some of my own behaviors and relate back to my own trauma. Reading the comments is helpful too. Really puts into perspective that most humans hear this story and react the same! It's horrifying, unthinkable and only invoke empathy for the child who ached for love and nurturing. But also that "success" CAN look like ours. Those invisible wounds that we were ashamed of and afraid someone would see, for so many years, while still there, are covered by the most beautiful external package of "a normal life" and nobody would ever know we were victims. My family experience is eerily similar in context. I also believe there was no way my mother didn't know her husband had abused me from 10-17. I told her at 17, too, and the same story there. "We need to work this out as a family" as he told her I was lying for attention. I moved out, finished my Sr year of HS living with a much older boyfriend while I worked 3 jobs and ran across the county with him after graduating. That didn't last and my life took some crazy turns but I was so blessed to have met my (now, of 25 years) husband who was patient and kind to me eventhough i wasn't forthcoming with my past then. He knew my behavior came from some type of trauma. Eventhough I had not connected the dots myself yet. I thought I was fine. I was away from him, a grown up and safe. Had I met someone preying on a victim I'm sure my life would have been very different. I probably would have tolerated alot of abuse in return for any semblance of "love". When we moved back to my home state, we spent holidays with my "parents" . I was so scared of losing the illusion I had created of my family. What i so badly wanted them to be, that I tortured myself with their presence. It took many years and lots of therapy to prepare for the "consequences " of standing my ground. Needless to say, that all became reality. Mother stayed with him. I finally filed a police report after my siblings had daughters and couldn't stand the (even slightest) possibility of them being hurt and Good news, he was arrested and convicted because he told on himself (and blamed me) and sentenced to 10 years. Mother was at his sentencing hearing (first time I'd seen her in 2 1/2 years) and we didn't make eye contact let alone speak. She continued to visit him in prison, until covid and he gets out in 2 months. He is old now and while I empathize with the abuse she's suffered ill never understand her choices. Particularly when he was in prison for the last 10 years. It's such a hard pill to swallow knowing the one person in the world supposed to love you unconditionally isn't capable. I've struggled more with that trauma than anything he ever did or said to me. And it is hard every day. My siblings and I all had very different childhood experiences. They both maintain a relationship with her. I have no relationship with one of them at all. While the other one is fine we definitely lack intimacy and have to exclude parts of ourselves/feelings to avoid conflict. It's truly a tragedy when you see an entire family destroyed by something that EVERYONE objectively agrees on how it should be handled. Thank you!❤

I don't understand the doctors who treated her for her internal injuries as a child and why they did not alert the authorities for what she went through. It's not just tragic it's totally criminal.

Oh Bonnie. I’m so so angry at all those that hurt you. I’m heartbroken for child-you. I’m so proud of adult you though the pain is still evident. I hope you find the right therapist fpr you (remember that if you don’t like a therapist it’s not therapy that sucks or doesn’t work, it could be the therapist). You have done so much work, and therapy can help you go further and deeper. Thank you for sharing. Sending you all the positive thoughts ❤

My heart shattered when I heard your story, Bonnie. You’re such a strong and amazing person! Heart

In tears the whole time. Incredible step forward with your sister to go therapy. I hope you and your siblings receive/ find all the unconditional love you SHOULD have gotten. Little by little. You're an amazing amazing human. Sister. Woman. Mother. Grandmother. Who's made sure the rest of your family never ever had 5% of the example/experience you had. You are an example of pure heart and grace.

I feel so angry watching this. Bonnie, you are a warrior. I can’t comprehend that amount of mental, emotional and physical pain you’ve been through. Want to give you a hug and tell you that the choices you made weren’t your fault. You were failed by so many ppl. Thank you for sharing your story. You are an Angel xx

How brave she’s been and so strong to survive. You have a beautiful soul and I am so thankful you shared your story and wish you all the best. Know that you have helped so many by sharing

Bonnie you are such an inspiration! I pray for your continued healing from your horrific childhood. I would love to see an update on her in the future 🙏🏼❤️

Where do I even begin? Bonnie, it's clear that you've already overcome, survived, healed, found purpose. You have a beautiful soul. I hope you continue on your healing journey, with therapy or any other tools you try, to push through the pain to find greater peace. Your courage to tell your truth and to live each day in passionate defiance of evil is inspiring. I believe your purpose is just to be a light and be love. Thank you for sharing your story and yourself. Sending a huge hug 💕

It's relieving to see someone so viciously abused still be so calm and sweet. I'm so happy for her that she continues to live another day being a kind person and she deserves all the love and support

The power and strength of this woman is incredible. What a story, may your strength continue

Her story is heart wrenching. It was difficult to listen to the end. Her mother should be in jail as well as her father and stepfather 🤬 she is truly an amazing woman to have survived, I wish healing for her and her sister 🙏

I'm in love with this woman and her heart of gold. Damn, just damn. I'm an RN, and I wish we worked together as a team in the hospital making our patients feel great. She's the real deal.

It’s so awful for a person to go through ONE sexual assault. Then to go through multiple… I feel so sorry that some people have suffered so much.

How does one have that type of surgery at age 5, and still be allowed to go home? 😳

Oh, Bonnie, my heart not only breaks for what you endured but how emotionally hurt you are. I'm sure you've heard many people say " this is not your fault" " you are blameless in this crime" and other well-meaning sentences. But I want to thank you for have the courage to tell your story and remaining as proud as possible throughout. I see and understand your struggle and your commitment to staying as strong as you are today. Stay strong. Stay PROUD. Thank you for living!! AND know that there really are people in the world who admire YOU
