Crawling Out: One Woman's Journey to Break the Cycle of Abuse

"Your words of wisdom are so true. As a survivor you have so much to teach others." Bernie Siegel, MD, author 365 Prescriptions for the Soul and 101 Exercises for the Soul How does a child know... - What is acceptable or unacceptable? - Normal or abnormal? Good or bad? - That children aren't slaves? - That women aren't beaten? How do they get out of something they don't know they're in? Crawling Out is a true account of Casey Morley, a child raised in a dysfunctional family filled with abuse, domestic violence, and alcoholism that continued well into her adult life. This story will awaken you to the truth about children robbed of their innocence, childhood, and their birthrights. The toll abuse takes on their lives often sets them up to repeat history. Casey's story chronicles years of coping with, and crawling out from, abuse--working hard to break the cycle to end generations of dysfunction. Watch her as she deletes what she was taught, and fights to shed fifty-plus years of shame and guilt that weren't hers to carry. Through each struggle, you'll witness Casey's pain, admire her strength and courage, and feel the depth of a mother's love as she fights to make a better life for her son. Casey has defied the odds and overcome a deep sense of worthlessness, unmasked the secrecy many victims carry, and learned to forgive. With awareness, as a society, we have the ability to end domestic violence. Crawling Out is that first step. CASEY MORLEY has worked hard to emerge from and come to terms with a life of abuse. She offers hope and asks you to see things in a new light, helping you to move forward on your path of personal growth, healing, and forgiveness, while educating those who don't understand. Her mission is to help lower domestic violence statistics through raising an awareness of the reality of abuse. She's extremely thankful her work has been endorsed by President Obama.

Review :
October 2015 Your words of wisdom are so true. As a survivor you have so much to teach others and in a sense reparent them. When you have not been blessed by wise parents, teachers and other authority figures adversity can be what enlightens you. We can all be helped by your wisdom and not have to experience the adversity to become enlightened. Bernie Siegel, MD author of 365 Prescriptions for the Soul and 101 Exercises for the Soul. By Brian Jud Author of How to Make Real Money Selling Books on August 3, 2015 To know Casey today, as I do, you would never know that she went through such horrific experiences of domestic violence and abuse. She lives the remarkable life of a woman who has been able to persevere and create this record of her journey to help others in that situation deal with their emotions and pain. Casey's "Crawling Out" is an honest, engaging story that is simultaneously heart wrenching and inspirational -- a combination rarely communicated this well in today's books on the topic. "Your story of survival is powerful and inspirational, and would undoubtedly be a useful tool for survivors who are dealing with the trauma of leaving a relationship with an abuser." Elmer Freeman, Executive Director of the Center for Community Health Education Research and Services, Inc.at Northeastern University and Director of the Office of Urban Health Programs and Policy at Bouve College of Health Sciences in Boston. Casey Morley is emerging on the scene as advocate for the millions of children, women, [and men] who are victims of the abuse of domestic violence and alcoholism. I'm fascinated by some of the exciting ways you are working to get a very important, healthy life sustaining message out. E. Richard Fortunato Community Service Advocate, Free Lance Writer
