Susanne Gervay – award winning author, specialist in child growth and development
This is an important testament to survivors of child abuse. Irrespective of background, a child’s world is only safe, when the adult carer cares, loves and protects. It shows that we need to protect our children, so they don’t carry the burdens into adult years and life.”
Prof Freda Briggs AO, Emeritus Professor Child Development
“Her survival as a child and again as an adult coming to terms with her trauma is a testament to human resilience. Child sex abuse is known to be one of the greatest contributors to later mental illness, substance abuse, self harm and suicide. I hope her story will encourage others to create a safer and more caring world for children.”
