I AM A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SURVIVOR I WAS ONE OF THE LUCKY ONES TO GET OUT ALIVE,YES I STAYED OVER 13 YEARS,WITH MY NOW EX-HUSBAND,I STAYED BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID TO LEAVE,I STAYED BECAUSE,I COULDNT MAKE IT ON MY OWN,I STAYED,BECAUSE HE WOULD KILL ME IF I LEFT,I STAYED BECAUSE I HAD NOWHERE TO GO,I STAYED FOR MY CHILDREN...WRONG!!!! ALL THOSE EXCUSES,WHERE JUST THAT,EMPTY EXCUSES...THE WORSE THING TO DO,IS THINK YOU ARE DOING YOUR CHILDREN,A FAVOR BY STAYING,TRUST ME,YOU ARE NOT...WHEN MY HUSBAND BROKE MY NOSE,HE WAS ARRESTED,I BEGGED THE COP,TO LET ME KNOW AHEAD OF TIME,WHEN HE WILL BE RELEASED,WELL HE WAS OUT,WITHIN THE HOUR! AND NEVER WAS EVEN WARNED.ONE SMALL STORY,TRUST ME I COULD WRITE A BOOK,CHRISTMAS MORNING,MY GIFT FROM HIM,WAS A BLOODY LIP,ALL BECAUSE I DIDN'T BRING HIM HIS COFFEE...BEING AFRAID,WHEN THE KEY GOES IN THE FRONT DOOR,NOT KNOWING ,WHAT KIND OF MOOD HE WOULD BE IN,I HAVE BEEN DIVORCED FOR YEARS NOW,AND STILL HAVE BAD DREAMS,ABOUT HIM.in 13 years,calling the police on him,so many times,guess how long he stayed in jail??  0...NOT ONE DAY!!! please,we need to do something to put an end to this,IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW,ARE BEING ABUSED,DON'T LOOK THE OTHER WAY,GET INVOLVED,TODAY!
