Thank you for sharing, I suffered in silence for a long time before opening up to my wife about my own sexual abuse. I hope together we can make a change, I understand the strength it took to go so public with this after having done this myself last week. Stay strong.

ms mconnell, i was/am very very moved by your account. my thoughts are a jumble (as they often are ) but i feel compelled share what i can, in no partidular order: a) once again, i am reminded how complex a person's life is. i think about that poem about how one can see the world in a grain of sand if one can remember to look; b) such resilience you are able to muster... where can it be found. i wonder how i might have coped if i'd been in your place. again, i think of verse, "the force that through the green fuse drives the flower..." c) how, through this reslience, matthew and holly have been able to live without such terrible circumstances as those of your childhood - which goes far beyond what one is impelled to do for self-preservation. it seems to me it might be connected to a respect and feeling for life itself; d) i had not thought about how much more terrifying childhood sexual abuse could be in the context of a lockdown. surely it would be the stuff of horror films if it were not such a real danger; e) your testimony is an exceptional reminder of the degree to which the human mind can find its way around sensory obstacles. with this in mind, i hope you know what i mean when i say that no language or dialect in the english speaking world can beat the way "lovely" sounds when spoken by a glaswegian (in this case, your daughter). i truly believe it is the best accent to express the meaning of the word .
