Opis

Tookie, now fifteen-years-old, shares her memories as a survivor of unspeakable atrocities and heinous crimes committed by the very system in charge of her protection in this dark-fiction novella. She wants to heal from the molestation and child abuse suffered. She wants to forget the pain and humiliation. She wants everything to return to the way it was-before she was forced to leave Neiva. The bad medicine causes confusion and disorientation. Tookie doesn't know what is real or true anymore. She doesn't know who to trust. If she can't overcome the experiences of the past, Tookie will remain trapped in that horrible place, allowing it to influence everything she does. Powerless to stop hurting the one person she loves most, she follows her grandmother's leading to embrace transformation and recovery. The miracle of healing begins Rated R due to adult themes. Based on a true story.
