Today was stressful & hard. It was emotional. I broke down in tears along side my volunteers & a young mother of two, who felt like her world was ending. She wanted to save her children from what she's had to endure.

She didn't want to end up a statistic. She chose to leave a volatile living situation & move to a safe place where she began the process of living for herself & living for her children.
She chose life not abuse. She chose her kids over her partner. She chose smiles over tears.

She told all of us that she had been planning for over a year to leave & was on the verge of leaving when #Covid19AB happened.
She was scared/afraid/had panic attacks not knowing how to help herself let alone her children. Then she saw us on @GlobalCalgary with @global_leslie.
