caitlynnb Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hi,I am Caitlynn and I am a 28 year old rape surviver and I was badly raped when I was 15.I remmber I was walking home after seeing a friend of mine and my neighbor grabbed from me from behind and gaged me.The next thing I knew that I was in his base basement handcuffed to his wall which he called his dungeon.I was badly beaten and raped for 5 hours.I did get out by luck by some how the handcuffs broke after my neighbor left for 2 days.I did get home and my parents did call the police.I did get checked out and recieved more bad news,I could not get pregnant in the future by the doctors and my dream of having children was shattered.I did not get justice,My rapist decide to kill himself during a standoff with the police because he did not want to go back to prison which he served for sexual assult 5 years earlier.My life is is going great now,I have a wonderful,loving boyfriend of 3 years that understands what I went through.
