Abuse And Neglect In A Nutshell. Jennifer's Story.

Jennifer shares her story of the abuse and neglect she endured as a child. She discusses the impact it had on her life as an adult. It manifested in drug abuse, self-harm, eating disorders, and a multitude of toxic relationships.

She will have major surgery on her neck soon that may cause paralysis from the neck down. At the moment, Jennifer lives on a fixed income due to her mental disability. Consequently, she barely has access to the necessities of life, which will most likely worsen her financial situation as she recovers. If you can, kindly donate what you can to her Venmo account. No matter the dollar amount, your help is greatly appreciated. Her Venmo username is @jenkeene1979.
