chapter 2

•1. David finally got his prayers answered on March 5, 1973.
•2. On that day David said goodbye to his teachers, and was taken to the hospital by a police officer to get cleaned up by the doctors. He didn’t have to live with mother.
•3. The truth about him was that he was shy in class because his whole life he has been brain washed and beaten.

•8. David felt safe when the police told the doctor that his mother would never hurt him again.
•9. His new home is a foster home that looks like a log cabin. It has a huge backyard with lots of trees and a creek.

•11. When Aunt Mary grabbed his arm David thought that she was going to yell and hit him as his mother had always done.
