Pin Lots going on this weekend in the online survivor community. If you’re not out enjoying the weather, or watching some football, there’s plenty of good stuff to read and think about. First up, Dan has the Inner Child Edition of the Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse up. There’s quite a bit of good stuff linked…

It’s up over at Picture of Experence today, in time for the Father’s Day weekend. When I first saw that she was planning tthis edition in connection with Father’s Day, I had planned on writing up something here, but as the deadline approached, I realized that I just didn’t have anything.

I was really touched by your story. I myself am a survivor of child abuse physical and sexual. I attempted suicide at the age of 15 & the last thing I remember before drowning myself was this man on my radio singing She Will Rise Above. I later discovered it was a song by Pearl Jam called Daughter. Their music has been my therapy for 18 1/2 years now and counting. I hope that you would be willing to share your story on my blog pjcolumbus.WordPress.com or my survivors blog youwillriseabove.WordPress.com
Thanks for courage and bravery
