Teddy's message to the world:
You took away my innocence, you tricked me. You did everything you could to hurt me and try to ruin my life. I felt silenced and alone. I was scared. You changed my life forever. But now it’s my turn. My turn to live my life to the fullest potential. My turn to put all of my energy and love into myself and my healing. I finally accept what happened and know where the responsibility and blame belongs – on your shoulders, not mine.
