i understand totally your situation concerning your sister and what happened to you. i could never tell my sisters what happened to me. they wouldn't believe it and it would ruin our relationship. i never confronted my parents about it either. our later years together were pretty good, but there were a lot of years where there was a great separation between us. i especially resented my mother as she knew what was happening to me when i was a child. i had lots and lots of therapy and came to terms with it.

i'm glad that you felt safe enough to tell us about your experiences.i wish these things didn't happen..but life deals us some pretty hard stuff to deal with.

love, pat
