    You know what, your mom fought! She fought to the very end, she had the courage to leave and that alone says so much! I’m so sorry for your loss 🤍

    This is so horrible. I’m so sorry for your loss and angry that your dad thought he had the right to take her life, and abused his family for years. I wish you peace and healing and please know this was never your fault.
    I wish domestic violence was taken more seriously. It’s truly a dangerous red flag but it’s never taken seriously.

    The audacity to blame you for all of his actions.
    My heart aches for you, that's an incredibly heavy weight to have on your shoulders. I really do appreciate you're allowing people to take a peek into your feelings. I hope as you go about this journey you find moments of healing and of peace.

    This is the part that we often don't know: How do the children move on with their lives....
    I hope for you and your brother, joy, peace, love come flowing heavy into your lives to heal the pain...I hope you both find light that will soothe you and give you peace...you never get over, but you can make your way through each step..

    Your mother's courage will never be discredited by such a monster. I can't imagine trying to deal with this, but the fact you're still here to be trying to figure it out says you inherited your mother's bravery. I hope you're able to recognize that this had nothing to do with you, that pathetic coward was desperate to not take accountability and would stop at nothing to do so. Saying it's not your fault is obvious, and something I'm sure you've heard before, but that's only because it's a fact. He does not have the power to rewrite the facts. It was always and will always be entirely his own fault. History will happily forget this monster, and you will carry on your mother's light. 💜 Sending love and strength your way.

    That could never be your fault. I am so sorry for all the hurt and heartache that man has put you and your family through. You are so brave for telling this story, for not rotting. I hope you know how very loved you are.

    You saying that you're ok with things because your mom is finally safe (essentially what you said).... wrecked me. I pray for your continued strength. I pray for your heart and the ways it has changes because of this. I pray for your hard days and that you will always feel her around you. I pray that there isnt a single day or hour or minute or second that you will ever think this was your fault. I pray that your story reaches every corner of this earth so that other people in your situation can find peace and healing. I pray for your future husband and children. I don't know either of you but I know that your mother is so proud of you! ❤❤❤

    I’m so sorry this has happened to you. Please know it’s not your fault in the slightest. No matter what twisted psycho tricks he’s tried to make you believe for years. You grew up in that. No one should’ve done that to you, and someone should’ve protected you. Society should have protected you, and we failed you. You’re not at fault in any way-in fact, you’re handling this better than many people could.
    If you were my daughter and I was taken from this world too soon, I’d be so grateful for all of your strength and openness. I’d know my baby would make it and I’d be at peace because of that.

    Even if you were the worst daughter ever - which you of course were not and your amazing mum chose you - but EVEN IF you were going through it because you grew up in an unsafe environment and rebeled and did who knows what, it would STILL not be your fault nor your responsibility.

    What a horrific man. I am so sorry. You’re right- your sweet Mom is safe in the arms of Jesus. And her joy is FULL in His presence “In Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” ❤ Praying for you as you live without her and heal.

My best friend from middle and high school was murdered by her estranged husband, and I wonder all the time how her 4 girls are doing❤

    F his letter.
    First I was like you don’t owe it to anyone to share it. That’s so personal. But then you gave us the summary and f that letter and everything it contains. How dare he even say those things in general as a father. But to say such things knowing you’re going to do what you do/did what you did. How dare he. HE is the one at fault. For all of it. You were a child, he was an adult. Whatever happened back then isn’t on a child, it’s on the adult. For the trauma he inflicted emotionally, mentally, physically, he made those choices. He is responsible. You were there for your mom and I bet living together was the best time for her as well. He can never take those memories away. Remember the good times.
    I was 19 when my mom passed away unexpectedly. She was totally healthy and got sick one weekend in October and was gone February. My sister had gone away to college when I was 15 and during that first year my mom and step dad split. My dad had passed when I was 3 so no memories or relationship with him. I had been wanting them to split after years of emotional and verbal abuse but then his drug addiction started, already an alcoholic, and things were getting close to physical. We moved out into my aunts house for a while and then into the small home her parents built snd raised their 9 kids in. It was that house my mom and I got to live together just us and made the best memories. I felt like I lost her right when our journey was just beginning. I felt like she was stolen from me. I couldn’t imagine losing her the way you did. You are so strong. I’m almost 40 now. This year marked more years I’ve been alive without my mom then the years I was with her. I hadn’t even thought about that “milestone” until the year before and then it was something I couldn’t stop thinking about. Is that even a milestone? It shouldn’t be. Hearing your story broke my heart and put me back in that 19 year old mind. You are doing so well. She is proud. As a mom now, I know she is. You are not rotting AT ALL. I was numb for a year, until my first panic attack shopping alone in a kohls. Then I was an absolute mess and used medication and drinking to survive. But I wasn’t surviving at all. I was self destructing and it had to end. I’ve got 15 years sober now and am raising an amazing teenage son. There is a future as an adult orphan. You’re not alone. It’s a club none of us want to be in, but we are and we’re there for each other. Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable part of yourself. You’re far from rotting. Hugs.

    Thank you for sharing your story and showing immense resilience. Words cannot express my sadness at the loss you’ve experienced and the abuse you’ve had to live with. I’m starting EMDR therapy to process my childhood trauma, and this helps remind me of the strength we all have in us to overcome the pain and grief we’ve experienced in our lives. I hope you are able to heal as much as able, and find joy, safety, love, and contentment.

    Thank you for sharing your story. I'm so sorry that happened. I appreciate the details since I started following you because I resonated with the idea of "let's not rot" and making small changes that lead to bigger things, but I have been curious about what happened to understand better where you're coming from.

    I’ve been abused and although my story did not end the same my mom just never chose to leave and I don’t speak to either parent anymore. I’ll never understand your grief but I just wanted to say you’re not alone. Healing is insanely hard and the invalidation from people really doesn’t help anything. I’m sorry if you blame yourself still and I’m sorry this happened to you at all. I hope each day you find out how to keep going more and more, it’s really just about enjoying the good moments as much as you can and fighting through the bad. I wish you well though and hope you have more good days than bad eventually❤️‍🩹
