YVONNES STORY

There is no shame in having been abused. Shame belongs on the abuser, not the victim. I wish more survivors believed that. I desire to see freedom for all those who have suffered in silence. A huge thanks to Jeff Buccellato, director, producer, camera man and editor, who told me story. I couldn't be prouder of the outcome.
This is the second time I am uploading. The first time around it got up to almost 900 views and then somehow got taken down (not be me or RUclips).
If you watched, and it touched you, please consider sharing. Not because I think I'm special, but because 1 out of 3 women and 1 out of 7 men have been abused by the time they are young adults. Many never speak of it. This is a shame.

Such a powerful story. So very happy you have found peace in your life. The statistics are frightening and hope this give more children the power to over come their abusers. Thank you for sharing your story.

Yvonne you are a powerful woman. I thank you for sharing your story. There seems to be a dark side of me that was released after watching and hearing this amazing video. I'm thankful from knowing that there is healing to come by forgiveness.
