After getting engaged I instantly started planning for the wedding every girls dream. My parents were shocked when I came home to show them the ring. But as time progressed his attitude got worse with my son. We had moved out of east tx and then back. I had beat up his ex girlfriend for disrespecting our relationship and everything. One day I had went to work and as usual he was home with the kids. I called on break and he had let me know that my son had used the restroom on himself (we were potty training him) and he was making him some bath water and I told him I was gonna work a double and I would be home later. When I arrived home everyone was sleep the house was quiet. I checked on my son he was sleep and my daughter was too. The next morning my son woke up crying and I got up to see why he was crying I looked down at his feet and what I seen almost made my heart fall out of my body. Due to the trauma behind this I will not disclose too much as it still hurts to this day to talk about this situation. My son had second degree burns to his feet I lost my kids and I felt like I lost my life. I had never experienced that type of pain before a lot of people blamed me because I never left when I was getting abused. It was a rough time I blamed myself I felt that I was no good. I had to go to domestic violence classes for battered women and a lot more. I lost a lot of weight and ate one point I was homeless. None the less I always made sure I made it to visitation to see my kids and they loved seeing me. Our bond became so close after this tragedy I would never wish that type of situation on anybody it truly messed my life up as well as my perspective on men. Things has changed, but for the better this time.
