3. That you are here now is amazing..and attests to your ability to survive

What you went through is appalling and for your entire young lifetime. I understand how some authority you depend upon turns on you and it changes your outlook on life..it truly does.

I doubt you have brain damage...but I am sure the people in your life do...you are here..you are healing...that does not indicate brain damage..it indicates SURVIVAL...

I would like to have the words the others have said..but I am so flabbergasted at what you went through, I am not sure what to say..only that you seem saner than anyone you encountered in your life.
