A True Story of a Domestic Violence Survivor

This is a true life story about abandonment, abuse, and survival. It is about the things I did to survive and how I overcame everything that I have gone through and been through. When you are abused, abandoned, and a domestic violence survivor, all that can change you. It changed me and believe me, I was a mess for years.

For the longest time, I had no hope. I felt that all I deserved in life was abuse and nothing else. I believed that I was ugly and more, but I was wrong. Just because I have been through all that doesn't mean that it has to stop me from living my life the way I want. I am still me. I am still a good-hearted person. I can accomplish anything. Yes, I have a history and a past, but I still smile. I am still accomplishing all that I want to in life. Now I have the honor to help others, hopefully save others, inspire others, and more.

My story will have you on the edge of your seat, bring tears to your eyes, and make

your heart melt. All I ask is for you to not feel sorry for me because I am a survivor-

everything that I have been through has made me strong.
