So it's not implausible that a rape victim would use that expression. Doesn't excuse her rudeness to you, though, and I'm sorry it affected you badly. Get better soon, with your hand.
You are too kind, I don't deserve it, hiding behind my nebulous posts,,and
making myself seem unapproachable. I have a history of abuse--and I am hypersensitive to the words of others--I will endeavor to be more real with you all here--you've no idea how your kind words touch me.
