Thank You, Internet

While some may say this is wrong - this sharing, this writing, this blog - I have to say that I feel part of one amazingly strong community.
I am beyond lucky to have such a supportive group of friends, IRL and URL.

Internet, you are saving my ass. Thank you for paying for the roof over my family's head right now.

I am without words...that alone says something.


Thank you.

What I like best, is when I can help someone because I WANT to, because I CARE. I might pass the face on the street, and not recognize. But I know the heart. Without question.

Be kind to yourself and be proud that you GOT OUT. And yes, he will keep blaming YOU because he has to.

A relative of mine and a friend of mine both escaped deadly situations. In both situations, the husband AND the families blamed the victims and put intense pressure to not report it.

Again, be proud of yourself for having the courage to get out.

Liz at Badgermama sent me the link to your site and your story and I was happy to do my part. I hope that the days before you just get better and better, for you and your children.

I've never read your blog before, but came from Britini's blog. I have been in your shoes and I know it's not easy. Just hang in there, as you're doing, and I promise things will get better.

I wasn't able to help a whole lot, but I gave a little. I know every little bit helps!

Stay strong!!

I came over from LFCA.

My father always wondered how my mother could do that to their family, too. I am so sorry. She survived, she protected us, she got out, she still protects us, we are all strong and whole. My brother is a wonderful father who took what his own father did and multiplied it by negative one. I wish you the strength and fortitude of my mother and your children the love and many blessings my brother and I have enjoyed.

How could I say no to someone who sent me the most incredibly rich and fabulous chocolate brownies with a tiny little blue pig salt shaker filled with la sel de la belle France!

Well, that and the fact that I'm a big fan of yours. xoxo

Ever thought of opening a bakery or a tiny shop that only sells delicious yet curiously cute food?

calliope said...

You go girl. Believe me I think that allot of things in my life would have been better if I could have had a tool like this to vent to. Keep writing, don't ever stop.
If you stop writing you will stop living.
