One of the Angel survivors told me that this book really helped her, and asked me to post a blurb about it. I read “Forbidden Memories” several years ago. I was amazed at all the author has done to be a warrior survivor, and also to help others.

If you’ve ever suffered alone, then “Forbidden Memories: A Journey of Healing” is for you. Sandy Riggin has courageously shared her story of triumph over adversity… Throughout the story, Sandy maintains a realistic voice as the narrator of her own life…She lets the reader know that no one is alone and understanding is available.

For nearly twenty years, I engaged in careers in retail, real estate and property management. Every working day left me feeling unfulfilled, as if I was living a false life. My real life began not by changing jobs, but by putting pen to paper in journal writing sessions. Themes emerged regarding the impact of my sexual abuse, drug addiction, and suicide attempts. By using the journal to write about the problems and solutions discussed in my counseling sessions, a story of transformation evolved. My desire to share a message of healing from trauma became too strong to ignore; the book (Beyond the Tears: A True Survivor's Story) became a mission. I left the corporate environment to write my story about personal yet universal emotional issues. Although journal writing was a cathartic experience, the book was written with the courage to face my fears, with compassion for myself and others, and a conviction to tell the truth.
