Hey Heather,
I want to tell you how proud I am of you for coming forward and standing up for your rights like this. I don't think you will regret this because no matter what happens you still had the strength to do the right thing.
HERE is a link that explains a little about the process of bringing your rapist to court. Hopefully that can help answer some of your questions. You will have to testify in court this is a chance to tell your story and explain to the jury why he needs to be put in jail. As long as you tell the truth you can't go wrong. I understand that it would be tremendously nerve wreaking to testify but no one in court is there to judge you over what happened. The victim doesn't get put on trail the rapist does. If you ever need someone to talk to I am here for you. You are not alone in this. Take care and stay strong.
Lots of love
<3 Mimi
