I
am sharing this story with you now, because I did not share this story with the
proper authorities when it happened. I did not call the police when my ex-husband
put his hands around my neck and terrorized me and my children. I am sharing this
story because some of the Muslims in the Muslim community turned their backs on
me when DCF got involved and falsely accused me of medically neglecting my son.
I am sharing this story with you because I was accused of having a mental illness
which by the way, I DO NOT, and was cleared by the Community Health Center here
in Middletown in 2011. Read More
