True Story of Childhood Trauma
Can I Come Home Now?
In this heart-wrenching yet empowering memoir, author Barbara takes readers on a harrowing journey from the innocence of childhood to the complexities of adulthood, revealing the deep scars left by betrayal and abuse. At just five years old, Barbara's world is shattered as she faces unimaginable trauma at the hands of those who should have protected her. Shuttled between relatives after her family’s disintegration, she becomes a target for predators who exploit her vulnerability, leaving her grappling with a fractured sense of self-worth.
Yet, this is not merely a tale of survival; it is a testament to resilience. Through candid reflections, Barbara unveils the cunning tactics of her abusers while illuminating the profound longing for her mother’s love—always just out of reach. As she navigates a world of dysfunction and ultimately finds herself in an abusive marriage, Barbara’s story transforms into one of hope and healing.
“Can I Come HOME Now?” is a poignant reminder that even in the darkest corners of our past, we can reclaim our voices and forge a path toward a brighter future. Join Barbara on her journey of rediscovery and empowerment, and learn how to rise above the odds to create the life you truly deserve.

I was born to an abusive doctor named Ahaz in Kentucky, homeschooled and not even allowed to have friends. When I was nine, Ahaz discovered The Church of God in Christ, Mennonite (Holdeman) in Tennessee, and he forced us to move there. The Holdeman's were religious exempt from education beyond the eighth grade, and I was beat for begging to go to a high school. As a minor, I had to kiss approximately 200 different people on the lips, some of whom were complete strangers, for the sake of something called The Holy Kiss; only it didn't feel holy.

On one of those magically white winter nights, my mother took me in her arms and shut the doors behind her. We left my drunken father in the name of a better life. And the name of that better life was Tom, a local gangster with the face of the devil himself. I remember looking at my mother's bloody face bashed into the ground, teeth scattered around her limp body. I understood then that one of us was going to die. Fortunately, I was right!

The eldest of seven children born to an abusive father, I endured a childhood of unspeakable violence and ridicule. This courageous memoir details the hardships I faced as I desperately tried to be accepted as a son to a father who does not believe I am his child. I did not endure years of abuse as a child to remain silent. Now I am not ashamed of what I suffered as a child anymore. My story is not easy to read or even comprehend, but it is my truth and my right to tell because it happened to me. It took 58 years to accept that my past cannot be changed and to finally let my past go. I can ...

In September 2007, Elissa Wall, the star witness against polygamous sect leader Warren Jeffs, gave captivating testimony of how Jeffs forced her to marry her first cousin at age 14. This harrowing account proved to be the most compelling evidence against Jeffs, showing the harsh realities of this closed community and the lengths to which Jeffs went in order to control the sect's women. Now, in this courageous memoir, Wall tells the incredible story of how she emerged from the confines of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints and helped bring one of America's most notorious criminals to justice.
