Doreen in Snippets

I went to Doreen's house after running away from the group home. It was actually a slow long walk cause I had to enter the city cross downtown and get to the northeast suburb where she lived. I only saw Doreen once after she got discharged because she came back to say hi to people from the institution. She was quite upset that I was still a girl. Things had gone downhill for me as I was no longer in the girls dorm but the secure unit. But I had her phone number.Doreen was one of the nice girls. She didn't Barbie me like the other girls and she only helped me. When the other girls did my makeup horribly she took it off and did it nicely. She never said anything mean or hurtful to me but instead stood up for me when I was being bullied by the other girls and boys. She became one of my protectors and when I was off of CCS I was usually close to her because she made me feel safe. She wasn't able to stop the other girls from using me as a live Barbie changing my clothes umpteen times a day and being a makeup model, but she did stop the physical stuff and the verbal crap and name calling.
