Abuse
survivor Ann Thompson has put decades between her horrific childhood in
Catholic orphanages and life today as a wife, mother and grandmother,
but the demons of that nightmare past still haunt her.
"Sometimes I feel like a 12-year-old girl living in a woman's body - an old woman's body at that," she says. "oy spine is twisted and arthritic because I was thrown against the walls of the playroom again and again as a child and I've got arthritis in both hips as well. Because of all the slaps across my face and head with nuns' fists or sticks, I have chronic earache - the pain is like a hot needle."
