Attempting To Move On

Although it took Kach a long time to deal with what happened to her under Hose’s imprisonment, she has since been trying to move on with her life. She met someone whom she loves and has chosen to marry, and she’s working on becoming a real estate agent. When she thinks back on what happened to her, she says, “I have moved on but it’s something that will be with me for the rest of my life.”

Dealing With The Past

Although she has been able to restore most of her life back to that of someone normal, she still speaks about the issues she now faces due to her 10 years in captivity. She recalls, “There were many times I was sick. I had pneumonia, a lot of tooth problems. I had chronic migraines – nothing to take for them. And now all those health problems are back to haunt me. I have two clotting disorders, blood clots in my lungs last year. I had to have a full hysterectomy at 29. I can never bear my own child, and I have diverticulosis.”
