Hi !
I am a survivor!! My abuse lasted 22 years physically, emotionally, and financially. We were your typical upper middle class suburban family. The perfects. But I had a secret a big secret. I was covering up black eyes, concussion, emotional tiredness. My kids didn’t know . He would tell me to calm down after he would whale on me in our bedroom. He would say calm down stop crying I didn’t even hurt the kids will hear. But one day I faced him I said heck with it all and I left I left everything. That night he punched me dead center in my face twice as I struggled out the door I thought God please help me get me out of this please I need help. He left the house after a couple days and I got an attorney and a personal protection order . I fought and I fight daily for the challenges that have come after. I take baby steps and I know that one day I will be healed. I forgive him for myself. .so much more to say but this sums it up
Thank you
I can smile again.
