In 1994, I fell in love with the man of my dreams. I was 16 years old but I wanted to marry him. It was the most passionate love affair of my life. Like all great love stories, there was a twist in the tale and years later he left me, disappeared with my children. I had to go home to an empty house. I can?t even begin to tell you what that felt like, how terrible it was. It felt as if they had all died. I am a firm believer that buildings can retain atmospheres, memories of what occurred before, and the atmosphere of trauma and heart break and repression was there as soon as I walked through the door, stifling, pungent. The silence was a killer. Before there had been 3 lively children, my husband, the sound of the TV and radio, now there was nothing. The silence was so silent you could almost hear it. All of the children?s clothes were still in their wardrobe, I had no idea what he was dressing them in. Toys were left out in the same place where they last played with them, his coat was still hanging on the coat hook. This is the true life story of my fight for my family in a ferocious 2 year court battle and the ungovernable love and passion between myself and my ?ex? that overthrew all obstacles, proof that love really does conquer all.
