Description
Following a day of watching my grand babies play at the beach, writing this book became so clear. It wasn't just for me but for the generations that came after me. Sharing my story may focus on history but it is the future I hope to change. Abuse and trauma hadn't just been part of my life, but it had already touched the lives of both my daughters (nearly killing one). Somehow, I needed to find a way to be sure it did not touch my grand babies. If by sharing the history of abuse that had already transpired, by focusing on the warning signs, by acknowledging the types of abuse, by reliving the details and their triggers then my story can change more lives than just my families.

Person
Stephanie J. Carr is a multi-generational author. She is the loving mother of three beautiful adult children and has been blessed as a Nana with eight precious grand babies. As shared in this heartfelt yet brutal personal memoir she found a way to share her survival story of childhood abuse at the hands of a bi-polar mother, sexual abuse at the hands of a child predator and ex-husband, and emotional abuse in some of her most personal relationships. Her greatest desire in publishing this autobiography is to reach out and touch the hearts of others that have been in, or find themselves still in similar situations. She hopes to empower anyone in an abusive relationship to find their own courage and strength to stop the cycle of abuse so that others will also understand and experience what it is to be a SURVIVOR.
