I don't deserve to be treated this way. My husband — a tyrant — together with his father, tied my hands behind my back, suffocated me with a pillow, and beat me like a football — all in front of our children. I endured this horror for 10 years. My late mother and grandmother were also victims of domestic violence. I grew up in it. Now, I am staying in a Crisis Room for mothers and children with my two young kids. I have filed for divorce and child support, and a criminal case for domestic physical abuse has been opened. We survive only on child benefits, so I had to take out a loan, which I am unable to repay. I have no home of my own, and due to constant stress, I’ve developed serious gynecological health issues. One of my children is also sick — she has myopia in both eyes and kyphoscoliosis. Everything requires money. I am in despair and asking for help.
