Hidden Through My Windows: A Journey of Healing From Sexual Abuse

Estefany Quijano

Take this journey with author Estefany Quijano as she describes herself and her life at the age of 12. Every page of her book detailing the traumatic experiences Estefany had to encounter, all which resulted in forming her into the woman she has become now. HIDDEN THROUGH MY WINDOWS is told from the lens of Estefany’s childhood through adulthood voice.

Estefany Quijano shares the hardships she encountered at an early age when she began experiencing sexual abuse. “I fell to the ground of the tub crying. I wanted to scream but I couldn’t. I had to keep quiet. I sat on the ground of the tub, placed my hand on my mouth to prevent myself from letting my scream out. “I got to keep scrubbing” So I scrubbed and scrubbed harder each time,” recalled Estefany the moment she knew her innocence was gone.

Hidden Through My Windows will take you through Estefany's childhood abuses and her depression through her adolescence. But her heart ultimately is to share the secret to her healing. Many dark encounters occurred hidden through her window, but the moment a sudden light reached her window, there was nothing strong enough to prevent that light from pushing its way through. The kind of light that only God offers and was capable of performing an incredible transformation in Estefany’s life. The kind of light that is ready to also enter into your home. Dive into Estefany’s story and discover that NOTHING is impossible for God!
