You are so strong and resilient and brave. My heart broke for you and your daughter as I read your story, and I can only imagine how much more painful it would be to actually live through. I hope that you two are able to stay safe from now on, and get the love you deserve. I'm sending my best wishes to you, your daughter, and loved ones
