I tell every one to see Boxing Helena...it is my life...I used to claim unless he cut off my arms and legs I am responsible for my own actions..

Well he cut off my arms and legs..not actually, figuratively...

no running water...we have to depend on him for water...no transportation...he purchases all food....and I used to cook food and clean up...then he refused to bring me water from the basement...and empty dirty water in the yard...(cut off my arms)

Nowadays when you call the police they show up in GI gear ready to kill someone...I don't want that.

I cannot say I love him, but I do care that he lives and has a life...
