    • Close Incest Survivors

      My grandfather sexually abused me starting at age 5, or least that is my first memory, unitl I was 13. The abuse was mostly fondling, oraly sex, matrubation and fingering my vagina. He at one point tried intercourse but when I screamed in pain and began to bleed he stopped. I finally was able to stop the abuse of touching when I was 13, but the emotional control and sexual advances continued far into my teens.
