I just caught this post, I am so sorry that this is happening to you. I just want you to know that there IS better life out there for you. Leave-- he is probably not going to change, you do not have to live like this. No man ever has the right to beat you, drunk or not. Please know that I'm praying for you. I know that there are others here who have been through this, they can point you in the right direction. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
