Do you think her ex-husband should be publicly named and shamed?


27 y/o Courtney Cosper Waldon from Georgia, a mother of a 5 y/o daughter suffered horrific burn to her face after a fire pit accident revealed how the injury left her homeless, out of work AND ABANDONDED by her HUSBAND!!

She had 3rd degree burns to her face and 40% of her body after gasoline was poured on a campfire back in September of last year.

She was rushed to hospital and placed in a medically induced coma for a month and 2 weeks after she awoke, her husband of only 2 months LEFT her AND their 5 y/o daughter, Caroline!!

Because she couldn't work, she and her daughter were homeless and they are still trying to rebuild their life

Courtney said "I went from being the very pretty girl, just married, had my life in order to barely being able to dress myself and needing help for everything and having to learn how to do things over again. It was very hard to come to terms with what happened..The first time i saw myself in the mirror, i got sick and almost passed out. I got so many stares with people looking like they had seen a monster. It was a slap in the face when my husband left me. I tried and begged him to come back, my daughter didn't deserve it. There were defintitely times i wanted to give up, but i had ot think of my daughter. They didn't bring her to the hospital so the first time i saw her, she heard my voice and gave me a hug. She's been amazing"

She spent 51 days in the ICU and had to undergo laser surgery and has 7 skin grafts as well as had to learn how to walk again..

Each surgery cost 11,000 and a GoFundMe page was set up to help cover medical bills as she still has 12 more surgeries to do..

She remembers every second of that day the moment the gasoline was poured on the fire pit as she remembers being on fire and immediately dropped and rolled and finally was tackled to the ground as she was crying in pain..

Without income and with medical bills to pay, they have been forced to leave their home and are living with her mother in Georgia as they are supported by donations and the local church so they can build a small home on family land

Thanks to the donations, the were able to build a small house as companies have helped the project by donating their services with concrete, and a heating/air conditioning system and a roof for free.

Do you think her husband should be named and shamed? let's see what people think

I'd willingly support the kid but yeah, not sticking around. I couldn't bang her again because couldn't get/stay hard, thus eventually I'm going to cheat so might as well end it now.

Jesus, that's like Fallout ghoul level horrifying.

I only glazed over the OP, I wonder how this really happened? Were a bunch of people piss drunk around a fire pit and somebody yelled "Hey let's fuck this shit up" and just poured a bucket of gasoline over it? What the fuck.

Jesus christ. the whole situation is a damn shame but I absolutely would have left her to who would honestly blame him?

Abandoning the kid during all this is shit though poor kid having to go through their mom being nearly killed and their dad leaving but he doesn't deserved to be shamed.

That's tragic, but I believe that woman is strong. Go her.

The husband though, why make assumptions like we knew everything going on? Something like what happened is enough to change anyone and put multiple kinds of stress on a marriage, especially a brand new one like theirs. Even if it was a simple matter of how she looks now, it sucks, but it means she wasn't with the right person. Whether she finds a better guy or not, I hope she gets all the happiness she can in life.

Ultimately it was his choice. Maybe there were other issues... maybe he was never devoted to begin with... who knows?

If this happened to my girlfriend though I wouldn't leave her and I'd still be just as affectionate. The thought of her suffering alone with that would break my heart.

It's easy to say that now but things would definitely be different if you were put in that situation. You might not take off like her husband did but you'd definitely not be "just as affectionate", it would be nearly impossible. Your sex life would be over. So what would you do? Cheat on her? Try to turn your relationship into an open one? Or simply go without sex or with very little? Anyone would have an extremely difficult time having sex with someone who was that badly burned.

poor girl

I would hope if this happened to my wife I would not leave her or even think about doing that

at the very least though he could not leave immediately

let her recover out of the hospital first, that is what a decent person would do especially when they are your child's mother

so no, I don't think we need to consider his circumstances at all, he is a legit scumbag

if he don't want to sex her anymore, ok
but he could at least help the mother of his child recover and get back on her feet

It's been a joke for a long time, sadly. Which is why I always laugh when offended people ramble on about the "sanctity of marriage" for their various reasons. Give me a break.

Whoa, you have a point, but that's not how I meant it lol. I wonder, really, what the biggest push was to our culture to jack up the divorce rate? My first thought is media and the "love at first sight" "soul mates 4ever" "relationships are ezpz" junk.

In sickness and in health.

No one is saying you have to maintain the same level of physical intimacy but (barring other reasons for leaving, and honestly my guess is he couldn't handle the depression) it's still his job to support her emotionally and financially (as well as it's her job.)

Sad thing is no one cares about the person inside anymore and clearly don't care about leaving someone adding on mental and emotional pain.
