Sex abuse survivor to Sen. DeFrancisco: You can't hurry the healing process (Commentary)

I went back and forth about writing about the Child Victims Act that appears to be dead in the water. The state Senate recently voted it down 30 to 29. I can't change the vote. Sen. DeFrancisco's opinion is the statutes of limitations in child sexual abuse cases should not be eliminated.
I probably won't change his opinion. While there are many things I cannot change, I choose to focus on what I can. I stayed silent for so many years about the sexual abuse that was destroying my life. I can no longer stay silent. Today, I choose to use my voice.
