I has the misfortune to have a ring side seat in my childhood. Not me I said, never will I stand for any man who lays a finger on me. I married the kindest gentlest and masculine man ever to walk the earth. It was a long search but so worth it. ~Daughter of a victim



I am a survivor of domestic violence for 20 some years beat down losing hope feeling worthless, scared to leave, tearing my body up with drugs so I could ease some of the pain. I finally left, on the run with my kids. It wan't easy, in and out of batters women shelters, staying where ever we could. I got off drugs, got back in touch with my family went to school for a career I wanted. I am thriving I am HAPPY to never look back, to never be abused again~LuLu
