What if you’d experienced a childhood event so traumatic that it took you twenty five years to even remember that it happened?

When author Laura Davis was twenty eight years old, she remembered that she ‘d been molested by her maternal grandfather.

But what would you do if when you finally worked up the courage to tell your mother, she betrayed your trust? Would you cut her out of your life forever, never speaking to her again? Or would you find a way to forgive her and take care of her during her final years?
