"I truly feel that, when he was strangling me, he was trying to murder me,” she said.
"He has taken everything from me and robbed me of one of the most precious things in life – my sight.
"I miss the things which people take for granted the most such as seeing the sky and the sea."
Jenkin had originally denied a murder charged but today pleaded guilty to GBH with intent. He will be sentenced next month.
