Summary

Author Notes

What you are about to read is based on a true story - my story. Everything you read is what I personally experienced first hand, and whilst I may never truly forgive & forget those who hindered me I have omitted names for privacy’s sake.

Whilst these may just be words on a screen for you, these are memories that I will forever be unable to let go of.

To my mother, thank you for being a pillar of strength within the darkest time of our lives. For helping me to keep fighting, and for never forgetting about me.

To my big sister, I will never be able to thank you enough for your words of encouragement when my situation would forever be bleak.

To my High School form tutor, words can never express just how much I appreciate everything you helped me through. Thank you for being the shoulder I needed to cry on.

To both my solicitor and guardians, thank you for giving me chance to raise my voice.

To the Moonrise author, thank you for your kindness and taking the time to help encourage me to write the words that I need to write.
