Skarpi, am so sorry to hear about your little girl....and I admire you for the courage to turn it over to the police...I think I would have killed the bastard....they say that time heals all wounds, but it doesn't, at least not entirely....love and support combined with time and patience heals the wounds...your baby will always bear the scars from her rape....but with your love and support, she will be able to cope with them.... The fact that she was able to tell you what had happened, tells others what sort of person you are....I have known a few people who could not go to their families for the type of medicine they needed and the scars are still there as visible as ever.... I have known others who have waited twenty years to toss this burden from their backs (and a heavy and deadly burden it is), because they had no idea how their loved ones would respond....and then finding they carried it for nothing....your baby is very lucky in that she has some one like you for a father....Good on you.... You and yours are in my thoughts....Blessed be.
