A domestic violence survivor recounts her harrowing 13-year marriage culminating in a near-fatal strangulation incident that left her temporarily unable to move or speak.

• Married at three months pregnant due to church pressure to "correct" the situation
• Experienced three major violent incidents over 13 years, with the first strangulation occurring just six months into marriage
• Cycled through leaving and returning multiple times, staying with her mother temporarily
• Faced complex barriers to leaving permanently including financial dependence, religious beliefs about divorce, and concern for her children
• Husband became increasingly agitated when she stopped being intimate with him
• Final attack occurred when he strangled her in their kitchen, dragged her unconscious body to the garage, and fled
• Children found her and called 911; she regained consciousness but couldn't speak or move
• Last word before losing consciousness was "Jesus"
