Healing Journey

For the first five decades of her life, Dolly

wore her inferiority complex like a second

skin. It was so much a part of her that she

didn't even know it was there. Possibly nobody

else did either.

At the age of four she was told, by her birth

Mother, big girls don't cry. So from that time

She didn't!! Except when she absolutely

couldn't help it and then she would go away

on her own so that she wouldn't be a nuisance

or make anyone cross with her. It was the age

when children were seen but not heard.

Just before her eighth birthday her Father left without saying Goodbye and

this resulted in her Mother having to put Dolly and her little sister into foster

care. There were three homes, the first was only temporary whilst a permanent

one was found. The second was not a happy experience for Dolly but the third

was just magic. She felt so lucky to be a part of Mum's family.

In decade number six there were many changes in Dollys life, she walked away

from a thirty year marriage and set up home on her own, not an easy thing

to do. Many new friends came into her life and between them they managed

to teach her how to value herself. It took a lot of patience and persistence but

Gradually the healing took hold and is still continuing today. By helping others

she found that she was helping herself too, magic.
