The Journey of the Suffering Mother Harriet Martinez

This book is about a woman that was abused all her life but with her faith in god survived many obstacles and challenges throughout her abused childhood, spouse abuse during her marriage, and poor health because of her journey in life. Her husband abused her physically, verbally and mentally due to his week-end drinking habits. She always found it in her heart to forgive her spouse thinking he would provide her and her six daughters a better living environment. She survived the abuse for many years due to the love that she had for her six daughters. She was her daughters' protector even though her life depended on it by being their mother and father throughout their child hood and teenage years. She was a cancer survivor and a rape victim. A grieving mother that broke down mentally developing dementia and through her faith as a pastor never gave up.
