My name Monique D Layzell I fought for the safety of my child
I was verbally and physically abused by now my ex husband for years
My memories are painful but I am free and my child is safe
I did my freedom alone as I was American Women living in England.
English laws are not the same as in the USA.
I believe Abuse in any part of the World should be treated as crime.
Not a slap on the wrist to the abuser so they are allowed to just continue abusing.
I feel more should be offered to abused victims . And to let them know where they find a safe place stay and what help is out there for them.
So Please Help it will really mean a lot .
This is what I say to myself every time I remember the abuse
” I am free so is my soul “.
Sincerely,
Monique D. Layzell
