Are You Wearing Their Shoes?

When any victim of abuse or stalking  allows their boyfriend or husband to hurt them, you are saying to that person what is happening to you is acceptable.  As a victim you truly believe the person is going to change.  In the majority of violent relationships, that never happens.

We taped a show on "Crime Wire" with two women whom candidly discussed how their "Prince Charmings" quickly turned into the nightmare from hell street.  On paper "he looked good and fit all of the qualifications I was looking for" says Barbara.  She would end her dangerous relationship in November of 2011 after 30 years of marriage.

Tracey Murphy would return to him, "the love of her life," eight times before she gained the strength and courage to leave.

Both women prepared a solid plan of action.  Was it easy for them? The answer is no.  For both Tracey and Barbara their breaking points came when they realized their lives were in danger and they were hanging by a thread.  They are alive today because of the information available in the book "Time's UP A Guide on How to Leave and Survive Abusive and Stalking Relationships."

If, after you've listened to the show and hear or see yourself in their shoes, NOW is the time for you to take action and create a specific safety plan.  A lot of helpful information you'll need to begin is located on the Website Document The Abuse.com.  If you have questions, I can always be reached via email at murphymilano@gmail.com.

Before you consider filing for a divorce or moving out, you better have a plan. He (the abuser) has one if you leave. And the last time I checked designer body bags were not considered a fashion statement.

Time's Up!

You cannot plead with an abuser and walk away from potentially life threatening situations if you are unable to learn the steps necessary to protect yourself. Time's Up: A Guide on How to Leave and Survive Abusive and Stalking Relationships will allow anyone to orchestrate what is needed to be safe.

If you are a stay-at-home-mom who has been controlled since a teenager and doesn’t know the first thing about leading an independent life, you’ll find all the details you need to escort you through the risk-filled and often baffling transition ahead . Time's Up by Susan Murphy Milano: is the best companion an abused woman can have."  Kathryn Casey, True-Crime Author

Keep saying it until you're blue in the face... if that's what it takes!
I have a feeling that Nancy Sinatra (aka "These boots are made for walkin'...and that's just what they'll do..."etc) would have the fortitude to do the EAA!

Remember... you have to do the work that's required in order to save your life! In other words, Susan can provide the road map for you... but YOU have to be the driver(and realize before you embark on the journey, that you are indeed worth the trouble!)
