Don't cry sweetie. You didn't deserve to be treated like that. No one does. You suffered all those years needlessly. I'll bet you're a very empathetic person, regarding other people's feelings now. You will never treat someone defenseless that way.

I re-live every invasive test I had as a child, every painful, humiliating moment. I think if my pain was addressed (I didn't know what cold medicine was until I was 16, or understand was novocaine was either) I would be less anxious about going for a colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, endoscopy, barium enema, biopsy, etc. as an adult. Don't get me started on my dentist anxiety!! 
When I got older, I also thought that I didn't deserve to be out of pain, that codiene and vicodin was for other people. I had a major block about even taking an otc pill for a headache. My mother reinforced that I was not good enough, that I had to "suffer." [shaking head] Awful to treat a human being like that.
We'll always be strong for what we've been through. I think we're also the most caring people on earth for what we've had to struggle with. And the abuse stops with us!!
