Right now, I am married to an abuser. Just over 13 years. In the past 2 years it has escalated to extreme verbal abuse, and no regard to putting me or the children in harms way. I am being forced to do things that are immoral and illegal for the sake of "supporting him in his business". I have been seeing a supportive therapist for the first time ever for just about one month. I would just walk on out but I am staying because of the thoughts you have at the end of this post. Aren't we supposed to grow old together, and enjoy that we made it through the tough times? I can't bear to think of growing old without him, but I'm so tired of the abuse! My thoughts go between running away and keeping the peace hour by hour. I'm terrifed of what is to come. Anyway, thank you Kellie Jo for your blog. It has helped me realize I'm not the only one.

I wish I could say something that would help you. I wish you didn't have to feel your way through this one to come out on the other side. If there is one good thing - it's that you have done it before. A lot! You have come so far, and this is just a hiccup. You will get over this too. I love you Kellie Jo!
