I am a 43 year old female,I have been married for going on 26 years,I have 2 daughters Christina age 25 and Cheyenne age 24,I have 1 son Donald Bonham 2nd (Bubba) he would be 22 right now ,but he was killed in an auto accident at age 18 on august31,2003 I miss him so very much! Bubba's 2 cousins Michael age 23 and Haley age 11 were also killed in the accident along with him.I have 2 grandchildren Nathan is 5 and Alyssa is 11 months! I was beaten by my daddy when I was 5 years old on up,I was also mentally abused by him,I learned to forgive him a few years before he died in 2001.I was raped by a boyfriend when I was 15 (he was 21)my parents should never allowed me to date someone so much older than me! I was pregnant by age 16, married and gave birth to my first daughter by age 17.
My husband had severe brain damage from a motorcycle wreck in July of 1990 he was 28 at the time and I was only 25,he had to be taught everything all over again,I was the one that took on this very hard task,all 3 of my children were still in elementary school at the time!
I worked in the medical field for several years and I loved working with the mentally retarded at the state school,they are all still very special to me.
I believe that what does not kill you, just makes you stronger!!!
