I got flowers today.
It wasn't my birthday or any other special day.
We had our first argument last night,
And he said a lot of cruel things that really hurt me.
I know he is sorry
and didn't mean the things he said,
because he sent me flowers today.
I got flowers today.
It wasn't our anniversary or any other special day.
Last night,he threw me into a wall
and started to choke me.
It seemed like a nightmare.
I couldn't believe it was real.
I woke up this morning sore and bruised all over.
I know he must be sorry,
because he sent me flowers today.
I got flowers today.
It wasn't Mother's Day or any other special day.
Last night,he beat me up again.
And it was much worse than all the other times.
If I leave him, what will I do?
How will I take care of my kids?
What about money?
I'm afraid of him and scared to leave.
But I know he must be sorry,
because he sent me flowers today.
I got flowers today.
Today was a very special day.
It was the day of my funeral.
Last night, he finally killed me.
He beat me to death.
If only I had gathered enough courage
and strength to leave him,
I would not have gotten flowers today.

I want to dedicate this page to a wonderful
girl who worked for me at Levi's
Her name is Sherry Campbell.
This happened to her and it was one
of the most painful things I have seen
a mother go through. Her mother Donna Tester
loved her very much. Please remember her in prayer
So for Sherry's memory please read this and send it
on to as many women(and men) as possible. **
***You never know who may be going through
something like this until it
is too late.***
Patience is a virtue to behold
Please read this and if you are a victim please don't wait!!
Get help for your sake and your childs if you have children.
If you know of anyone who may be in trouble send this to them.
For some reason I was lead to make this page.
Maybe for some reason you were lead here.
Think about it. :)
You know mental abuse is as bad as physical abuse. :(
I pray if it saves just one person.
It was worth every bit of work I put into it.
God Bless You and "WATCH over You.
