Bless you...no, no it is not your fault. Please don't think that it is. Your brother is TOTALLY at fault here...not you. Not one bit. Not an inkling of a bit.

Given your brother's behavior, it is normal to be afraid...I don't think you can be blamed for being afraid. It is NOT your fault...you did nothing wrong.

Have you told anyone yet? He needs to be AWAY from you...in a position where he can't hurt you.

Please, do not blame yourself...you could not have known it would get to this point. I would encourage you to tell someone now, as you deserve what justice you can get, but please do not blame yourself. You didn't do anything wrong.

If I may do anything for you, I would hope you wouldn't hesitate for a moment to PM me. I'm always here to talk.

My best, and know I am praying for you.

Hugs,
Harley
