am sending longer message to you but for now, just sending hugs and hopes and prayers...
Let the truth come out and make sure the judge can distinguish you from the rich guys who have lied in his court and hidden assets. IT happens and this judge knows it. What he does not know is that you are a man who worked hard to get where he is, and had an awakening; you married later in life so your hard work to become a surgeon was something you used to help people and provide A lifestyle for your family, but not to enslave you or keep you from your kids. Don't let him lump you into the wrong group. You probably earned near what the judge earned...so don't over apologize and even if you earned a teacher's salary, SO WHAT??? Don't get punished for having balance in your life.... Get those numbers straight, as I am sure they are AND make sure the judge believes them and isn't rolling his eyes planning on teaching you a lesson when he rules on custody...more later.
Remember your bottom line message and stay on it: The judge gets a 2 for 1 by ruling for you to have custody. Why? B/C unlike their other parent, You will allow their mother reasonable visitation and you are not threatened by her being in their lives. You know mothers have value....Your love for your children will ALWAYS outweigh any negative feelings you may have for your wife and that, Frank, is why you are the better parent. And the better person.
hugs...Big hugs!! ((( ))) j-
