Both pangs

Yesterday was awful in every way. It was a matter of reliving the horror of abuses received in young adult years, surviving. Yet who to tell the story to. The only safe person is a therapist. No one else wants to know. It has been going on much longer than I have been alive.

The incident involved giving a male resident a shower. I have readily given the man a shower countless times to save aggravation. In a lot of cases he is playing the women who are in staff, who at times have no choice but to do a shower when he is not around. So the manager, a woman takes matters into her own hands. Life will go on. Let the healing begin.
