Came across this while blog-surfing. Please go sign it. Children should not be denied the right to a childhood that doesn't snuff the life out of them.

I am a victim of childhood sexual abuse and it continues to haunt me even to this day. I thank God for His deliverance and healing which came to me through the DEW ministry last year. The incident was something I've buried deep in the recesses of my mind. The first time I tried to mention it to Rozie, I was choking on my tears and was unable to speak.

That was the first time I realised that the incident still haunted me so much. My hospitalizations last year and this April have been because of the incident. I was handling a lot of residual emotions and memories from the incident that drove me to tbe brink of insanity and it was only His love and grace that brought me back.

I am 28 years old this year and the incident happened when I was 9. It is almost 20 years on and I've only managed to find the deliverance that I need recently. It has turned my life upside down since the instant it happened and the incident is largely responsible for a lot of other things that have happened in my life afterwards, spanning 19 years.

So please, from someone who's gone through it herself, please go sign the petition and the one I have on my links on the right to do something for the children before they have to go through what I did.
