Skip Starbuck: I was at a district assembly
Skip Starbuck: I was about 9 years old
Skip Starbuck: and I had trench mouth really bad
Skip Starbuck: I was throwing up all the time.
Skip Starbuck: and the bathrooms were like miles away
Skip Starbuck: from where we were sitting.
Skip Starbuck: One day during the program
Skip Starbuck: I had to go to the bathroom again to throw up
Skip Starbuck: and my father was very irritated with me
Skip Starbuck: and told me to hold it until we got in the bathroom
Skip Starbuck: as he would beat me if I made a mess.
Skip Starbuck: So, I was a little kid and I was
Skip Starbuck: desperately trying to climb these big cement stairs
Skip Starbuck: and get to the bathroom with him right behind me pushing me.
Skip Starbuck: For some miracle I make it to the bathroom
Skip Starbuck: but all the stalls are full
Skip Starbuck: and even the urinals are full and the sinks
Skip Starbuck: My father tells me I got to wait
Skip Starbuck: but i can't wait anymore
Skip Starbuck: and I rush towards a urinal to throw up
Skip Starbuck: but there is a brother there who has not finished
Skip Starbuck: peeing but I can't wait
Skip Starbuck: and I end up throwing up all over him
Skip Starbuck: My father was extremely mad at me
Skip Starbuck: and beat me senseless
Skip Starbuck: with his belt.
Skip Starbuck: In therapy, I actually felt the pain of him hitting me.
Skip Starbuck: I couldn't believe how badly it hurt.
Skip Starbuck: and that for years i kept those memories alive in me.
Skip Starbuck: But that is it.
Skip Starbuck: Believe it or not, right now I'm crying
