washing machine. How could someone hate a little girl so much?
Once in a while my mother, who then lived in a different part of the country, would call, and my grandmother would make me tell her lies in order to hurt her. She made me tell my mother that she had once sent my brother and me outside in the snow with hardly any clothes on, which was snot true. Of course that would upset my mother deeply. To this day 1 feel guilty about having done that.
When I was 15, my father, brother « and I moved away, far away, from my * grandparents’ home, and I was never abused again. I used to say “Sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me.” That saying is a long way from the truth. Though it all happened many years ago, I am still haunted by the memories, and have to constantly fight to feel I have any self worth at all. And the only person I trust in the whole world is my brother, because he went through it too.
