Stories

This is the story of Bonnie…
a story of hope, strength, and belief
I was at the top of a mountain in my pyjamas covered in bruises, tears flowing down my face as I clenched my newborn baby tight.
He disabled the car and started yelling, telling me he was going to jump and end it all now! He had it, he firmly had it….
the control. I agreed to everything, everything he wanted from me. I could not have any friends, cannot talk to my family, stay home. He wanted control and isolation.
This is an example of just one of many scary, life-threatening situations Bonnie endured in her 2.5-year relationship with a man she met when she was a mere child at only 16 years old.
