Did I catch your attention?
Well, this "upstanding man" who is the epitome of the family man has a secret, sort of.
Mr. McCain likes to tell you that he has great moral fiber, that is an honest and upstanding family man with ethics. Here is some interesting facts, about his first wife.
While he was in prison camp in Hanoi, he dreamed of returning home to his lovely wife..... CAROL (not Cindy). What he found out, when he returned home from Vietnam, was that his lovely wife had been in a terrible accident that left her disfigured.
When Carol was discharged from hospital after six months of life-saving surgery, the prognosis was bleak. In order to save her legs, surgeons had been forced to cut away huge sections of shattered bone, taking with it her long, lean figure. She was confined to a wheelchair and was forced to use a catheter.
With sheer determination, she learned to walk again but had gained a lot of weight and was not the beauty he remembered. At 70 years old, she walks with a limp, is shorter than she was, and has suffered, in silence, for the past 30 years. This shows on her face with wrinkles of struggle.
She now lives at Virginia Beach, and she told The Mail (newspaper)about how McCain divorced her in 1980 and married Cindy, one month later. She is 18 years his junior and is the heir to an Arizona brewing fortune.
Carol had 23 surgeries, was in the hospital for 6 months and is 5 inches shorter than she used to be, due to the accident and surgeries.
She says that she is still on good terms with him and the reason he left her and married Cindy is that he did not want to be 40 but 25 again. McCain never brought this up. Carol was the one to finally speak out to the newspapers.
He has acquaintances who portray him as a womanizer who chose Cindy, a former rodeo queen, because she had excellent finances. Whether or not this is true, no one may know, but I am surprised that none of this ever came out during his campaign in the bid for the Republican nomination. What else could he be hiding?
