The author recalls one abusive situation that involved damage to her teeth. She said: "my Stepfather knocked my teeth loose with the butt of his shotgun". Her mother did not take her to the dentist. "She just placed her hand across my mouth, and pressed my teeth back in", Brown says.

The author wants to leave a positive message by telling her story. She wants to share with the students [the techniques that] medical professionals who worked with detectives in her legal case against a violent perpetrator. The actions they took to save her life helped to maintain the safety of her children while she was in a coma.
