Unlike Martin I’m not really good with words, so please bare with me!!!!.
He has asked me to write something about myself here, and I don’t really know what to say as I’m really quite a normal sort of person.
I met Mart in 2006 and it was love at first sight. What appealed to me about him was his great sense of humour and his big heart. Our beautiful wedding in July 2007 was the happiest day of my life, and I thought that Martin was my knight in shining armour who was rescuing me from issues I had had in my past. I thought my life was going to get easy after that.
I was wrong!!!. Since he went to prison my life has been totally turned upside down. I’ve got my hands full – not only am I raising Tiger, Martina and Edleweiss, but we’re all living in a condo in Florida so that we can visit Mart every week.
What’s it like raising triplets on your own, people say. Well I suppose I’m used to it as Martin didn’t help at all when he wasn’t in prison!!
Seriously though, the hard bit is the loneliness. Mart is great with e mails and sends me a lot of stuff every day. And now he’s sending me his dairy to put on this site. I’m not sure how I’m going to find the time, but I’ll try!! He also keeps asking me to read the bible, and I said that I’d love to but its hard when you are trying stop three 2 year olds from sticking their fingers into electric sockets.
Obviously you get to know who your friends are. And I’ve really been touched by the support of ordinary working people – who have wanted to see Martin back in the world. But Martin’s friends have been NOWHERE. He often used to tell me about his great chums. Klaus Schwab, Richard Branson, John Browne, Jack Welch. And were are they now??? Not a peep out of any of them – all have refused to answer messages from Martin or from me. He keeps telling me to be friends with Lady Black, but she won’t give me the time of day, either.
I could say something more about all the people who ARE NOT HELPING…but Mart says that we have to forgive, so I’m going to try to zip it for now.
More later, if I can think of anything to say. Must go now as Martina has just stabbed Edelweiss with my eyeliner pencil…
