From No.1 bestselling author Toni Maguire comes a new true story of
abuse and survival. Gerry was only a young girl when she was first
abused by her father. His evil acts were followed by abuse from her
local priest, arranged by her father. After her mother found out
about the abuse, and believing there was nothing she could do to
help her child, she committed suicide. Gerry and her siblings were
split up and placed in different foster homes, all knowing they
were unlikely to see each other ever again. Told that her mother
had committed a grave sin, her foster parents were far from kind to
her. She experienced years of loneliness, feeling completely
abandoned. The abuse Gerry experienced was so extensive it led to
her needing an operation to repair the damage her body went
through. When asked who or what had been responsible, she responded
'the priest'. But she was not believed in her small northern town
in the 60s, where everyone believed a priest took his orders
directly from God. After finally meeting her kind and caring
husband a few years ago, and after celebrating her 60th birthday,
Gerry decided it was time for her story to be told. This is her
true story of survival.
