Shattered by a world of disappointments and confusion, the mother of two reached her breaking point and decided that life was no longer worth living. Plagued by sexual abuse, emotional abuse, rejection, broken relationships, and the pressures of life, her silent screams became too loud to bear. Although she appeared fine to those who judged her on the outside, she desperately tried to escape the silent screams she thought no one else heard. Feeling useless and without purpose, she contemplated ways to commit suicide to end her shattered and broken life. Driving to the Tar River Bridge with plans to jump, in an effort to end her silent screams, the image of what this thought would do to her children gave her the strength to call on a much higher power, Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world.
