We left the UPC altogether. My opinion was that they said "Give us Barabbas" so we gave them Barabbas. Perhaps, had we been stronger, we could have done more. We were just utterly destroyed. This was a long time ago and I am just now having the guts to really speak about it. When it was going on, I alluded to things on forums but I always figured it was not for forum fodder because I believed that ultimately things would work out. Later, I did not really delve into it on forums because I was so tired and scared that these people would come after us and beat us some more. We had people who drove by our house and beeped the horn for weeks on end at 3:00 in the morning and people smashed out the headlights and taillights on my husband's truck. We could never prove who it was, of course. But we had to leave to save our own lives. It took me years to recover from post traumatic stress disorder and even today my nervous system is pretty delicate.

My heart hurts for you and your husband. Glad you are better in spite of abusive people.
