“I always told my family that my story should be a warning to others. That’s why I asked my granddaughter to write it down and tell others about it. I can’t write on a computer and many simple tasks cause me big problems. I’ve already experienced everything I could. so it’s no wonder that I’m at the end of my life and it’s not easy. I’m 70. If I could turn back time, I would never have made this mistake.
“I was taking care of the children, and my husband was drinking more and more after coming home from work”
Love is blind. This is my life motto. As a young girl, I fell in love with a boy who was not for me from the beginning. That’s what my parents told me, but I ignored it every time. Today I know that they were right. I’ll start from the beginning. I got married quickly and gave birth to four children practically year after year. It was hard, but together with my husband we somehow made ends meet. I took care of the children more, and my husband drank more and more after returning from work. At first I thought it was a way to relieve stress, but over time it started to bother me. Sometimes he fell asleep with a bottle in his hand, and other times he didn’t make it to the toilet. He always drank to the so-called episodes. I asked him to stop, but he didn’t care about my complaints. The children were still small, so I focused mainly on them.
“I wanted to have a complete family, even if my husband hurt me, I gritted my teeth”
Back then, divorce wasn’t as popular as it is today, and I didn’t think about it at all. Today I know that at that moment I should have taken the children and left him. When I talk about it, it seems so simple, but I was suffering a lot at the time. I didn’t care about my health, what mattered to me was the well-being of my children. I wanted to have a complete family, even if my husband hurt me, I gritted my teeth. When I see someone in my family suffering, I always say that divorce is an alternative that is really appreciated over time. I know it’s a rare voice, but it’s sad to see young families with no prospects for the future, for a joyful future. So remember that divorce is not the end of the world and there is life after it.”
