I had been living with an abusive alcoholic for a little over a year.
In his drunken rages, he kept telling me to get the f**k out of his house.
I accepted the fact that I couldn't change or control him.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer, and again, he told me to get out.
I put my life in God's hands, and I am now in my own home.
I am living where I can start to heal from the breast surgery.
No longer putting up with mental and verbal abuse.

NOW, he is saying that he is sorry and that he made a lot of mistakes.
I have been praying for my ex-alcoholic. Since I moved out, he has decided to seek counseling for his alcoholism and his anger.

You see, I couldn't change anyone but myself. My ex-alcoholic is left to deal with his own problems. I pray that God will help him and guide him!
