Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's not often a child comes face-to-face with the Devil, but my twin brother, David, and I lived with him. "He" was actually a "she", and her name was Mrs. Lawrence, our foster mother. Born in a prison and addicted to heroin as infants, five-month-old Angie and her twin David are sent to live with the Lawrences. They have a house but no family as they grow up without knowing love. Their foster mother mercilessly beats them, forces them to eat their own feces, kills their pets, and locks them in their rooms for days with no food. As Angie ages, she is locked in a coal shed, faces constant degradation, and falls victim to sexual abuse. She knows she has to escape, but how? Surviving the Devil is a factual account of abuse at the hands of an erratic, violent woman, as famously depicted on the Trisha Show and through the Irwin Mitchell court case. Though Angie sees no light at the end of the tunnel, she finds solace in her twin. They share an undying, pure love for one another and a resolve to come out of the house...alive.

Download or read book Domestic Violence Exposed written by Donna M. Savage and published by . This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Domestic Violence Exposed & The Demonic Force Behind It" is the sequel to "The Blood & Tears of Domestic Violence: A Survivor's Revelation," continuing the life story of Donna Savage, once a victim of domestic violence, now set free and delivered from the violent hands of her ex husband. Donna's life changes dramatically, as she discovers and learns herself, as she never knew before. The saga continues where the previous book left off, unfolding as Donna takes her first breath of freedom, after leaving the court house and follows her new life, which ultimately leads Donna to her mission and passion...advocating for domestic violence. The road to Donna's life since escaping her abuser has not been an easy one. She exposes the real battle behind domestic violence...demonic violence! Her testimony of the spiritual battle, principalities, powers and rulers of the darkness of this world that came against her, as she was being prepared to be used by God to save and deliver souls from the gates of hell is riveting and will leave readers on the edge of their seats. Donna says, "Exposing the truth of what happens behind closed doors, in the physical and spiritual realm, is crucial to free many souls. People may be afraid to say what they see, hear or experience when they are subjected to these evil forces, but that keeps not only them in bondage, but others as well. Donna is now a victorious survivor, advocate, Evangelist, public speaker, screenwriter as well as other empowering roles helping those still entrapped in the vicious cycle of domestic violence. God is her strength and guide as she journeys into the world of advocacy...His way! I pray that this book is a liberating read for victims, abusers, survivors and all involved in the tragic lifestyle of domestic violence, giving hope, redemption and life to many, in the mighty name of Jesus!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BlueInk Review: http://www.blueinkreview.com/reviews/view/3007 Across the nation women are entering the homes of friends or family, domestic violence shelters, emergency rooms, doctors offices, substance abuse treatment programs, and even prison as a result of attempting to cope with domestic violence by an intimate partner. Many women take their children and leave the abusive environment, only to return time and time again, succumbing to the promises of their intimate partner that it will never happen again. But, of course, it does happen again and again and again; sometimes ending in serious injury, severe emotional breakdown (requiring psychiatric treatment) and in extreme cases, death... Eva Howard, MSW, LCSW, LSCSW The story is compelling. I read it in one sitting. It is amazing to imagine how a woman could have the strength necessary to change her life and leave all she knew. I think this book can make a difference for women going through the same or similar situation. Ruthann Eason

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a seemingly innocent little boy who grows into a ferocious, conscienceless, ugly monster that destroys and devours everything good and pure that crosses his path. From tender childhood friendships to sweet innocent romances, nothing is immune to the monsters dark spell and insidious nature. This is also a story of survival and hope: survival of intimate partner abuse and hope that one day there will be an end to domestic violence and to the suffering of the silent victims. Twice, I have been a victim (and survivor) of domestic violence/intimate partner abuse in my lifetime. At the age of 18, I was physically abused by my boyfriend who was also 18. He beat me repeatedly and threatened my life in many ways. I was able to escape the relationship but never spoke about it and was determined NEVER to put myself in that type of danger in the future. Twenty years later, at the age of 38, I found myself in another abusive relationship, but I didnt recognize it as abusive because he never assaulted me physically (at first); the abuse was verbal and emotional. The control was overwhelming, and the insidiousness of his abuse slowly took over me and nearly destroyed my spirit and faith in goodness. Today, 18 months after escaping my second abusive relationship, I have vowed to speak. I cannot remain silent. Paula Carrasquillo August 21, 2012

Download or read book Everything I Never Dreamed written by Ruth M. Glenn and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The raw, uplifting, and unforgettable memoir from the CEO and president of the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence chronicling her personal battle against abuse, violence, and even a murder attempt. Ruth M. Glenn wasn’t surprised the first time her husband beat her. She was hurt and disappointed but after a childhood in a broken and violent home, she was not surprised. After all, this was just the way things were, right? It was only after she lay bleeding in a carwash parking lot, after being shot three times by him, that Glenn resolved—if she managed to survive—to spend the rest of her life standing up to domestic violence. Now, she brings her full story to the forefront with this survivor’s tale crossed with a rousing call to action. She reveals her difficult but ultimately rewarding journey from that parking lot to sacrificing everything to obtain her advanced degrees. With her evocative and thoughtful voice, Glenn explores the dynamics of domestic violence, why women and children are seen as lesser in our society, how to stop victim-blaming, and how to demystify domestic violence to stop it once and for all. A memoir of resilience and courage, Everything I Never Dreamed is a necessary book that proves that abuse does not have to define a survivor’s entire life.
