I decided to make a blog because I have a lot of stories to tell about my life experience. I started many times to write down, told few stories to here and there, and very often told I should write a book. Perhaps starting a blog could be the draft. There is something very important [...]
The transport parked next to a building. The drive didn't seem very long but I had no notion of time. I felt very drowsy and all I wanted is to be left alone. The men brought me to the nurse office. Most of my personal item was taken from me, left with only my clothes [...]
Every friends I had were still living with their parents. I had nowhere to go. Calling Madeleine was not an option, I knew she had a full house. My mother was certainly not one. I had a dog, I knew it would be an issue at my childhood friend, I didn't call her. Out of [...]
Unlike the young people, I wasn't enthusiastic to get my independence and my own apart. While others thought of the parties they will have and not bothering about their parents pestering at them to clean after themselves, I was thinking about the bills, paperwork and no one to turn to.

I quickly understood the chance for a better life by living in Madeleine's home. It wasn't only to escape my mother abuse, it was also about my future among the society. I knew it back them but it's only recently I know much I was right from finding out the facts. My old school wanted [...]

On the road to my new life, Magalie engaged the conversations. She asked what I knew about her job and her role. I gave her the two different versions I was given by the psychologist and my mother. Magalie had a facial spasm when she wasn't talking. I had cousins who had facial ticks. My [...]
It took us a while in silence to become conscious to the situation. After calming down, I explained what happened early. We were both shacked emotionally. My friend for discovering such trouble could exist, and me living it. We decided we had to tell her parents. I knew it would be ok, yet I was [...]
The atmosphere from my return to my mother house after my run away was heavier than I knew and I didn't know what to expect. It was dead silence between her and me. I was too afraid to say anything. I could feel her anger and the ignoring punishment. I didn't know how long it [...]
