The Bronx street kid becomes a man I am 55 sober over 11 years- my life continues to change as i grow up. I have allowed GOD to transform my pain and shame into a message. I didn't ask to get raped by a strange man when I was 7. I had no power to stop it. I remained silent and sick for over 40 years. I broke the silence, I am better. Now I share my trials and growth. I hope my book helps others face their pain. The darkness went away when I turned on the light. The universal light is love, GOD is love.
