Jaycee Dugard Photo Released

Considering the hell this poor young lady went through she looks healthy. May God bless here as she struggles through the pain of what she has gone through.
After being held against her will for 18 years, much of it in a backyard hell straight out of a horror film, Jaycee Dugard wants the world to know:

"I'm so happy to be back with my family," she tells PEOPLE.

Now living in seclusion with her mom, Terry Probyn, 50, and the two daughters – Angel, 15, and Starlit, 11 – fathered by her alleged kidnapper, Phillip Garrido, Dugard, 29, has begun the slow process of recovery. She rides horses, cooks meals and is thinking of collaborating on a book.

More images as well as a full interview with Jaycee are being published inside People on Friday. A spokesman for Jaycee said she had released the images of herself to the publication.

Erika Shulte, a spokesman for the Dugard family, said today: 'She just radiates. I was thrilled when I saw the photo because it was the perfect representation of what she looks like and it speaks to her joy with being with her family now and looking forward to her new life.

'She's a grown-up, she's a mother and a sister and a daughter. And it's amazing to just be in the presence of all of that. And if you walked into the room and didn't know the circumstances, it would seem, I think, like any other family.'

Miss Shulte said she was not sure if Jaycee's two daughters by Garrido, Starlet and Angel, realised exactly what had happened to their mother.

'I don't know what their awareness would be. But they are just so embraced by Terry, Jaycee's mother, and by Shayna, her sister, their new aunt. And they're very much seem to me to be enjoying the life they have now,' she said.
