This page describes an upsetting event. It is here for anyone who wants the full account, and you do not need to read it to follow the diary.
Back to day 51This is very hard to write.
Ten months before I visited, David sister Frances Crawford was found dead at her home. Her husband was accused of her murder.
While I was staying with them, we attended a vigil in memory of Frances and four other women allegedly murdered in domestic violence incidents.
As a victim of domestic violence, this was extremely upsetting to me. It cast a shadow over my remaining time in Australia. I cried for Frances, I cried for the other women suffering, and I cried for myself.
