My Survivor Story

I am survivor of Domestic Violence. I was strangled and threatened with death by my ex husband. He threatened to kill me and take my child away if I ever left him.. He also strangled me. I ran with my four month old baby to a shelter and from there he plotted on having my child removed from me with the help of some corrupt officials. I have been fighting the court ever since. I am slowing rebuilding my life and starteda ministry where I help women who are victims of domestic violence.
