Em...

I know.. the talking about it and the rejection from the family in most cases is the killer..

I recall several years ago- of a person this happened to. While I do not know ther person myself. She was raped (was soon to be professing vows in the Catholic church) kept her child and is raising as a single parent.

I remember thinking about it so deeply. And yet, when I think of her I think what an incredible woman- and thats an understatement of the year.

Out of curiosity- and forgive me for not knowing- but are most women who are raped- are they raped by someone they know and thought they trusted? Or by a perpetrator unknown to her?

I hope you do talk about it, it is important to know and to reach out to those who have similar experiences.

My thoughts are with you..
Yvonne
