About the Book
I told my teddy bears secrets of what my father did to me as a child. How he took away my innocence. The bears will never tell--but I will, because one out of every four children are sexually abused by the age of sixteen. May this book bring some healing to my brothers and sisters who are still wiping away the tears of abuse even in their latter years. God created you for a reason. You have a purpose in liviing. Don't let tragedy rule your life.
About the Author
This story was written, not for revenge, but for therapeutic healing. What would it have been like having a daddy who truly loved his daughter? If you have one, treasure him. But if your father abused you, forgiveness can be your choice. Otherwise he will be controlling you for the rest of your life. I have two daughters and five grandchildren. My second husband and I live in the Midwest and have been married for thirteen years. My education consists of Bible College and business school. The rest of my credentials came from living life. Due to my first hubsand's choices, I had to go back into the work world after being a stay-at-home mom for a long time. Working as a collector for a mega bank was not a good experience--although I toughed it out for fourteen years. Choosing to retire early, I now have the opportunity to write--something I have always wanted to do. Thank you for readiing, "Bears Don't Tell." Comfort and Joy bears live in my therapist's office--for real--and they always keep their mouths shut no matter what they hear.
