A
Worthy Woman
Victory Over Domestic Violence
"Why
didn't I know this was happening to you?" After
reading my book my mother wept as she realized what
I had gone through. I was stunned. Had I not fled
to her home on several occasions, bruised and battered?
Yet her reaction is typical. People find it hard to
comprehend that domestic violence really happens in
the home of a "normal" couple. Consequently,
eyes of family and friends are closed to the abuse
until someone gets murdered.
This
is a true story. Dr. Gail Majcher was a victim of
domestic violence. After being abused for four years;
she escaped from the marriage with two babies, no
money and few people to help her. Yet she made a success
out of her life in spite of the emotional scars. During
this difficult experience she kept a journal, which
is the heart of Part One: My Story and is encased
by her psychological and spiritual knowledge.
Part Two: Self Help has clear and concise advice for
the victim, the abuser and the parents of the children
involved in abuse. We must begin to stop the violence
in our streets by getting it out of our homes and
away from our children. A Worthy Woman addresses the
issues of why both men and women get caught in the
web of domestic violence and how they can break free
from its grip.
