I need prayers for protection, my friends, and for my 2 children living here too. My husband is very mentally unstable, and it is not just the dementia. He has come very close to getting physically violent again, besides the constant verbal abuse. I am keeping my cell phone on me, as I do not know when he will blow up again. I am so glad I finally bought a cell phone at the beginning of this year. Mental problems aside, the next time he lays a hand on me, he is going to jail. Maybe this is the only way he will get help. I hate for it to come down to this, but this situation is getting more frightening every day. I am his favorite target, but he has been verbally abusive to the kids too, even to his favorite, the youngest.
