The Walls Talked But Nobody Listened: a challenge to end child abuse

The Walls Talked but Nobody Listened- A Challenge to End Child Abuse is a book that has been recently written and published on Amazon Kindle. It is my story and it is a story that was meant to inspire people all over the world as well as a quest to end child abuse. My story begins at the age of three when my mother passed away from breast cancer and what follows is 15 years of extreme child abuse and torture. From being locked away in a room for over 8 years, to being sexually, physically and emotionally abused by both my stepmother and biological father in ways unfathomable to many. Leaving that torture chamber at 18 years old, I immersed into the world and had to learn in a very short period of time what so many learn over the duration of their childhood. I never faltered; I had an undeniable passion and drive to turn my life into something positive. At the age of 18 years old with a 6 grade- level education, deeply scarred and with very little social skills, I enlisted into the US Army and began my life. What followed was a journey to become an MBA graduate, a single father to my beautiful little girl, and a life of reflection, understanding and hope. It is a story of upmost resiliency and one that I hope you can help me share with the world. It is also a story about the system and an opportunity to truly build awareness for this social cancer. Finally, I hope to inspire other victims and provide them a "tool box" of hope and inspiration.
