Shocking! Disturbing! Unbelievable!

I had to keep reminding myself this isn’t fictional, this really happened! The true story of 3 sisters surviving the abuse from their mother, Michelle (Shelly) Knotek.  Shelly was a true sadist but beyond that horribly sick. My heart goes out to those daughters, they are forever changed by what the endured and witnessed. This is not only a story of horrors but a story of survival. A story of not just a bond that sisters shared but a love between them that was stronger than their mother’s numerous attempts to sever.
