ABSTRACT
I just felt that sharing,
being able to talk with
someone, people who have
actually experienced, who've
actually been crime
victims. . . . You know, you
hear about crime. I mean,
you hear it on the air, on
the television, but most
people haven't actually
experienced talking with
others who have gone through
the trauma. I think to know
that you're not alone is so
very, very important. It
gives me a sense of comfort,
and takes away some of that
sense of fear and being out
of control, as well. . . .
