Life is too short: 
I have a sister Lucy that had been abused badly by the ex-boyfriend! It killed me to hear my sister cry due to the abuse! He had my sister move to be with him in Portugal since he got deported back then and when it was time for her daughter to wed he did not want to let my sister come and that he would not pay the ticket.SO,I worked day and night to come up with the money to get Lucy back home! Thank GOD THAT I MADE IT!My sister Lucy died Dec 15,2011 61 years young from cancer that was found in her head and it had spread.Abuse can cause alot of damage to ones health! That man still lives and is walking free! I wish that there would be some way to get him for what had happen to my sister for the years of abuse! There is so much more to say but,till next time. I do miss Lucy(Lucia) Love I send to her up in heaven.
