Right the day is here now and I feel prepared to do this now though I am sure I will change my mind when I get there and start panicking!!
Thanks you so much for all your support guys means the world to me at such a difficult time in my life but hopefully in 12 hours time it will all be over! A guilty verdict will be nice but if not at least I have stood up to him and proved that I am strong.
Keep your fingers crossed for me today x x x

I'm a bit late coming to this thread pinkbunny - & I do hope I catch you in time before your court case.
Just to say - I have been there. I took my husband to court for domestic violence around 6 years ago now. The shock of it was what he needed to stop his vile behaviour.
Whatever the verdict - you have stood up to him & you should give yourself a pat on the back for that.
You have witness support, as did I - they are truly supportive and will be there every step of the way.
You will be okay, promise. And don't let that thug intimidate you in any way - don't even give him the satisfaction of even looking at him. Stand tall and stand proud.
Good luck, xx

Good luck pinkbunny. I've been where you are right now and have come out the other side and now live an incredibly happy life! Court and seeing him will be terrifying but keep your head high, don't let him see you are scared. Once this is over you will be able to move on with your life and he'll not be in it in any way. As scary as court will be, you will feel enormous relief once it is all over. He can't hurt you anymore pinkbunny, standing up to him will show him you are a strong person and not scared to challenge him anymore. Let us know how it goes, all the best x
Well after 3 hours of being cross examined today I am totally exhausted but I did it and thats my job done. 2 charges were dropped last minute as they would only hear them if they called my 6 year old daughter to be cross examined. It has been a year since we left him and some may say I am wrong but I chose for the charges to be dropped instead of bringing her into the court room today to face what I have just been through.
She is my baby and has been through enough so her statements were withdrawn I found it horrendous myself today and after alot of thinking I decided not to bring those charges to him. She already has anxiety problems because of all thats happened and I just could not justify it to myself to put her through it.
So guilty or not guilty I honestly dont care anymore I did what I set out to do I stood up against that bully and I am now forever free.
Thanks everyone for everything you have done to support me through this horrendous time but regardless of a verdict now I have already won i escaped his violence and now I can live my life my own way.
A fresh start for the 3 pink bunnies lol x x x

Thank you sara and bathsheba it feels sooooooo good. I am running totally on empty tonight I am so drained emotionally.
But this is the start of a very pink and happy future for us, and at the very worst he still has 2 more days of the trial to go through!!! Even if he does get let off! But I have shown the girls you have to stand up to bullies.
A job well done I think! x x x

Yes me and her have been in close contact via email we have been through similar things recently and I think we have both taken great comfort through each others support.
Yes today was awful but the feeling after is amazing when I was discharged from court I got out the room into the witness corridor and I fell to my knees and broke down. Pure relief that the chapter of my life was closed I can put this as my past almost a year to the day since I fled from him.
Shellp If you read this I have sent you an email and hun keep strong I waited a year to have my say court was adjourned 4 times but I got there in one piece and I had my say and the feeling that you get after is amazing. I am exhausted but on top of the world. The verdict does not matter its the process of being able to move on.
