Description

DAMAGED is the first in The Unbelievable Story About My Truth series that chronicles the author’s life from being Damaged as an innocent child by sexual, physical and mental abuse; then suffering the RIPPLES of consequences from the choices she made in an attempt to find her way after escaping, as well as the ripple effects on those she let, and brought, into her life; to being set FREE from the ravages of post-traumatic stress disorder through the truly divine processes of healing she was led to find. In Damaged, Lorina embarks upon a journey that goes back in time not easily forgotten; where she revisits the dark and horrifying memories of her experiences that no child should ever have to encounter. Stolen away from her mother as a toddler, she became a pawn in her father’s life of broken marriages. She was tormented by a mentally ill, alcoholic step-mother whose son, in secret, violently tortured and sexually abused her for a decade. Trapped in a home where she was forced to perform despicable sex acts by her step-brother; receiving physical and mental abuse on a daily basis from her step-mother through the denial of food, water, even appropriate clothing while suffering punishments played out in cruel rituals; Lorina’s life was a living hell. She constantly lived in fear and was brainwashed by those who were supposed to love and protect her into believing that she was worthless and would never be deserving of anyone’s love. Lorina shares her experiences as honestly, and sometimes graphically, as possible to help those suffering as she did, to know that she has lived their pain, but also to help teachers, parents and others in the lives of children to watch for the signs that are present if you know what to look for. She wants you to remember that her story doesn’t end here. Lorina’s universal message is that It’s Never Too Late to Tell and true healing can happen to even the most lost and wounded. Today she is no longer a victim but she needed her readers to take this first part of her life’s journey with her to understand how she became so… Damaged.
