My ex husband broke the whole left side of my face february 5 2000. He took me to the hospital and I could not talk. They did emergency surgery and other surgeries for 6 months ...I moved back to MS. 8 years later my jaw is still dislocated and I have to go back into surgery due to facial reconstuctive surgery. I also have 2 ruptured disk in my neck from this blow to my face.He said the statue of limitation is up and he got away with it.
