Its victims grow into adulthood with their little childs heart trapped in the pain and torment of their past. Nicole Braddock Bromley shares her own story and the steps to moving from silence to healing. Hush exposes the harsh realities of childhood abuse, explains the pain it causes, examines the false beliefs it creates, and empowers survivors to begin a personal journey toward healing by breaking the silence. With words of understanding and comfort, Nicole tells the real-life stories of those whose voices would otherwise never be heard. She is straightforward enough to pierce the hearts of those in a survivors circle of influence, yet careful to tread lightly on what could be tender wounds. - Publisher UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0711/2007007211.html ER -
