Every year there are hundreds of thousands of child abuse victims nationwide, and 80 percent of them are perpetrated by parents (American Humane Society). From Despair to Miracles is a fictional story of one such child.Josh thought he was finally free after ten years of physical and mental abuse by uncaring and unloving parents. For most of those ten years, Josh was battered and bruised, and often had nothing to eat for days. Josh lived in fear of his parents. At the age of six, he experienced temporary relief when his Aunt Sue entered his life but that was to last less than three years. The seeds for his instinct for survival were planted within him during his time with Aunt Sue. After being separated from Aunt Sue, Josh began his "escape" plan at the age of fourteen and at the age of seventeen, he was finally able to escape.The very day he left the home of his parents, Josh faced another crisis. When this happened all of his mental toughness suddenly deserted him. He had no place to go and no one to go to. Josh had lost all hope and his will to live. He just gave up. Josh then made a fateful decision: he decided to end it all. He had no way of knowing that what he did next would have such a great effect on so many people.
