Lily was trapped in a world of fear
For 7-year-old Lily, all she knew was fear. For as long as she could remember her father had been violent to her mother. She would see her mum’s bruised face, hear her cries late at night, and hear her father’s growls.
Lily would often be hidden away in her room by her mother when her father came home drunk. She spent a lot of time alone in her room, hearing her mothers’ cries beyond her bedroom door.
She wanted to help, but her mum said no.
