Martin and
I would like to express our heartfelt thoughts and
prayers to all of the victims and their families of the
terrorist attacks on America. September 11, 2001. Click the

It was his warm
smile that captured my heart the first time I ever laid eyes on
Martin.. Of course at that time I didn't know that he would wind up
being the love of my life as he was talking to a good friend of
mine, Mel .. They had met in a chat room and became really close.
Though he was sweet and handsome, never did I dream that one
day he would be mine. Martin and Mel seemed really close and I
thought that they were meant for each other.. I remember thinking
how lucky she was to have met such a warm, kind loving man.. There
relationship went on for more than a month or so don't exactly
remember, but being that they were so far apart it didn't last long,
Mel couldn't handle him living in Limburg, Netherlands and her living in
Kentucky. It was then that I would talk to Martin in the
evenings and we became very close to each other as well. This
started happening sometime in October during the fall festival
in the home town I used to live in Middlesboro, Kentucky..
Never did I dream that we would fall in love soon after that and
become a couple...After talking to each other for more than a
few months martin asked if he paid my way to him would I come there.
Of course I said yes, even though I was very nervous about this,
being I had never flown in a big airplane before let alone been out
of the country. I was afraid to get to excited about it though
for fear that it wouldn't happen, but after a few weeks he called me
from the airport one day and ask me some questions so and the next
thing I know I have tickets to come see him. Gosh I have never been
so excited in my life. I remember that day so well thinking this
man really loves me enough to want to meet me.. I just
couldn't believe that I was really going to go there. A few days
later I went and applied for a passport.. I still couldn't believe
that this was going to happen.. My family was very supportive to me
at this time.. they had gotten to know Martin as well through the
computer and phone calls he would make to me and they really like
him a lot.. Martin and I continued talking ever day and making plans
for our meeting till the 23 of January when I would then fly out to
be with him. During those months it was very hard at times for us.
To people who are in love, wanting to meet and be together isn't an
easy thing to go through.. there were many nights we would both go
to bed dreaming for the day to arrive...
