Sexual Assault

Sexual Assault

Sexual AssaultI was raped while taking the garbage out, right outside of my own house. I never saw who, but I’m hoping he will be caught soon. ย I came to TheHopeLine because I was feeling alone and overwhelmed with everything. ย Despite the support from my family and friends, I felt like I needed more.

So we talked for a while and I was given many resources which I will be taking, and then I was shown how God can help me heal.

Tonight, I found God. I know he will always be there for me, and I also know that TheHopeLine will be too.

So a HUGE thank you to the lady who helped me tonight, whoever you are. ย You’ve helped push me in the right direction and I’ll forever be grateful.

Thank you.
Jade

    You are beautiful and wonderful, you did not deserve this, and most of all there are people and men that truly Love without conditions. That wish we could take all the pain away, and restore what was taken.
    You are beautiful and wonderful, you have nothing to be ashamed of, this was not your fault. Love Always
