I was brutally raped as a child, causing devastating nerve damage. For the last 20+ years, I have had to manually remove my feces, as I have a non reflex bowel from the abuse.

I am so sorry for your situation, and hope you found justice somehow. When my dad was explaining what rape was to me as a kid, he said it was like someone pouring hot soup in your mouth. Everything you eat the rest of your life will never taste right, or will be enjoyable, bc some piece of shit burned your mouth forever. Taste buds might be wrecked, your lips may be wrecked, you teeth may not work. If your mouth heals, you have the horrible memory.

But imagine taking away the enjoyment of eating. Just imagine something you did takes away one of life’s most simple pleasures. Not that it is only a pleasure, it is a need.

That monster deserves at least the same. I can’t imagine your daily pain. I hope parents treat their kids better and this cycle stops.
