We All Remember: a True Life Story C Young

Publisher Marketing: Fays journey through her life led her to a paralysing abuse from an early age ultimately betrayed by family members by a series of terrifying events. Striving forward and marrying made her life enriched, but that was short lived and nothing more than an exhilarating roller-coaster ride through betrayal, death and her darkest days of depression as she struggles to cope with the loss and grief of a young life. Barely 21 years of age and the only way to move forward was to flush out the past as it's threatening to destroy any future happiness, as she wants revenge and to regain back her life. Energised by this she retained her past deep down inside for several years. Until, a traumatic news flash headlined the country and her curiosity took over and crashed her world to devastation. Discovering a secret leaves her overwhelmingly disturbed as it involves child abuse and murder that leaves her having to face unintended consequences. Fay becomes affected by ill health and left fighting for her life. The glimmer of light in her darkened world reignited itself and gave her hope as she surrenders herself to a ray of sun shine. Hope for her was the one she leant on, depended on, and loved with every ounce of her motor neuron diseased body. Contributor Bio:  Young, C C.
