I guess that she, when she died, it was a blessing completely. She didn’t know who I was. She could no longer stay here because she tried to get out and escape. And that’s what keeps me going now.

I believe that Marti’s in Heaven. It gives me comfort to know she’s in a much better place and happy.
Some people in the very beginning, they were trying to find somebody for me. I said I had the best. The best. Don’t play tricks and games with me.
I love the portrait: how straight she is standing and seeming to be firm in her position of already having had "the best!" Another great one in this very important series.
