Part 2. 'The Family' as they
are appropriately termed by the judge - though I do not mean to make out that the
judge was of a Mafiosi mind - but it fits - did not reckon on the tenacity and
sheer bloody mindedness of child 2, who ABHORS injustice and saw this final act
of her mother as, well, the final nail. She did not act alone, in fact the fingerprints of the dastardly
ones that married into The Family are all over the death documents x2.
Finale:
Child 2 'wins' and gets full costs. But there are no winners here. Only losers.
Though the morally bankrupt ones had to be taken on. Especially the
orchestrator (rhymes with woman hater) who has likely done what he has to other
crossers and who will likely continue to do, unless apprehended. By the law.
I will dissect this foul
smelling cadaver with a pen (mightier than the sword) in the weeks and months
to come. I'm still coming to terms with the ugliness of all I have been
through. What happened in court, where I discovered monsters behind the scenes, is hard to digest. I don't have a grid for what I have seen. It
would be hard to put into believable words.
Behind my own scenes and indeed through them, I battled
breakdown followed by 2 bouts of major surgery, hot-heeled by an ear shrivelling
diagnosis and high blasts of chemo that have left a legacy of instant menopause
and scarred, burnt and bruised insides that, given so much of me has been pulled out, now find themselves displaced all over the place. The scars unseen, physical and more, are stubbornly
ropey.
But outside where the light causes the dark to fade, there is pure,
unadulterated joy. Not least in the faces of my girl, my boys. I am not a
victim. I am an overcomer. Come on life. Keep on coming. I'm here.
