I remember sometime last year I came on here saying that I had left my x-husband after he indulged in drinking and drugs and being violent..a lot of you gave me good advice and I really do appreciate it I have come along way.i put myself through school graduated and now am a lab technician/phlebotomist couldn't be happier...Thanks a lot ladies God bless you.
It's so good to hear from you and know that you are doing so well!
A lot of ladies write about dire situations in their lives and they are terrified about what to do next.
You have made it through some tough times and you give hope to others that they too can make some positive changes in their lives.
Congratulations!
What a great update! Congratulations to you.
I'm glad you came back with your update. You know if just 1 mom is going through a similar situation that you were going through, you give inspiration that she can do it too!!
Way to go!!
What a great Happy Ending!
Pat yourself on the back Mama....you did the hard work! Be proud!

It was very thoughtful of you to share the progress you have made! You really have walked through some very hard things, and it is inspiring to know that you have come out the other side with a much better life. Keep sharing your experiences (in situations where you feel comfortable and your family's privacy will be respected). As the other posters have said, it can encourage people who are struggling with similar things.
Great work!
YOU GO GIRL!!! where this is a will - there is a way!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
congratulations! This is an awesome group of human beings on this site. So many helpful and compassionate people. Glad you're doing so well.
That's just wonderful news! Thanks for letting us know! You have been through so much but your courage in the face of great uncertainly will be an inspiration to many other women who feel they cannot leave their abusive/addicted men. You've done the best possible thing for yourself and your children. You've shown them strength and self-respect. If their father gets clean and gets counseled at some point in the future, perhaps he will have a better life and they can then have a relationship with them where their safety is not at risk. You've shown them, and other women, that women can make it on their own, and should. Once we all find our backbones, we can become full and complete humans. I wish you well in everything!
Congratulations!! it's great to hear!!
Pat yourself on the back.. you received good advice and acted on it. Good for you.
Remember YOU did the hard work we just advised you.
That is so wonderful!! It is always great to hear when one of "our own" here comes through a really difficult time, now on the other side of all that sadness, and now is smiling, peaceful and happy! I wish you continued peace and joy as you create your new, happy life!
Wow, I am so happy for you! You are an inspiration to other women in unhappy relationships who feel stuck. Yes, you CAN work on yourself, improve yourself, get out, and welcome back happiness and peace to your life, as you have demonstrated! I hope this will give some courage and that emotional support that someone else in this situation may need during this time. Congratulations on graduating and starting a new life, and thanks for letting everyone know! We are proud of your hard work and dedication and I am sure your kids are too :)
I wasn't on Mamapedia last year, but I'm so glad you posted and update! I'm thrilled for you. I love this place!
and what an inspiration you are to what, based on your name, must be your daughters.
:-)!! S.
