378. The betrayal of the barbed wire acrylic on canvas 30 x 40 cm

Description: At three years old, while in residential home, I went on a group walk and saw a beautiful rose in a meadow. As I reached for it, suddenly a horse came running to me,  I hurried  back in fear  and barbed wire slashed my head from front to back. Despite the blood streaming down my face and intense pain, the staff forbade me from crying and forced me to complete the entire walk. My reward for not crying and staying  hiding my pain was a lollipop.

Why let it pee? During my time in foster care it was  prohibited to use the toilet when you needed it. You had to ask their permission,  which they could deny as they pleased.
