When your husband looks at you and says "This isn't going to work; I want a divorce," when your child comes back from visitation with bruises and explanations that don't make sense, when you begin carefully applying make-up to cover your own inexplicable bruises, you suddenly find yourself transported from the familiar to the alien.  You feel like you're alone in an ocean, thrashing against the current and the weeds that threaten to drag you to the bottom.  You need help.  Reach out and grab my hand, Sister.  We are here for you.  

 

We have been where you are now.  The information on this site comes from our own experiences overcoming divorce and abuse.  It is NOT a replacement for legal advice, counselling, or other forms of professional help.  However, it IS a guide to familiarize you with the processes you will be facing and to help you evaluate the professional services you access.  (Believe you me, all professionals are NOT created equally!)  

​

In short, this is the digital equivalent of two sisters sharing if-I'd-only-known-then stories over a cup of coffee and promising each other that it will get better.  So pull up a seat and your favorite mug.  Together we can find A Way

Through the Weeds.
