"I guess I feel compelled to share the story because I know there are many women out there who may be in a similar situation and feel hopeless as I have felt many times. Maybe some woman's life can change after hearing my story and she can see that she was created with tremendous value and that her very existence does indeed have a very important purpose.....I always thought that telling my story would make even Ghandi want to kill himself. But I am learning that I have the power to heal these wounds." Katherine

Hope that helps some. Hope what I sent can be helpful..." Becky
