#MeToo Story Number 7 - By Jeanne

I'm 83 but the trauma of being sexually abused by an uncle when I was 15 is as fresh as if it happened yesterday. I remember every detail. It traumatized my self respect which I have never totally regained and it definitely imposed a negative element into my 20 year marriage.....fear I'd be found out by my husband as though it were my fault. I was afraid to say anything...a 15 year old girl up against this war hero that the family idolized. oddly enough he died the month I met my future husband and it appeared to be a suicide. go figure.
