I went onto the Dr Phil show webpage and was going to e-mail him links to your posts. However, their submission form asks for many details including full name, date of birth, address etc. Due to the fact that I do not know all of your details and that it only accepts addresses in America in the available fields (& I'm in Australia), I have copied the following from their frequently asked questions so you can send a copy of your posts directly.
Good Luck! Nicki

I guess I'll repay the favor - by publicly thanking you for helping me support my friend in prison. Without your connecting link I wouldn't have been able to provide him with all I now can. I'm eternally grateful. Thank you for your support & for helping me to bring a little long awaited happiness into his world!

P.S. It sounds like you'll make a good wife for B some day, with those cleaning skills you speak of :D
You'll probably never know how much wisdom you actually passed on to us. Even if most of it was probably unintentional or through your mistakes that I learned some of my best lessons. For instance--the biggest thing that kept me from any experimentation in drugs and alcohol was the fact that I knew you'd catch me. Or the fact that you planted the seed of my love of fantasy and science fiction.
And yes, I still make my chocolate milk the way you taught me. It's a reflex. I don't think I can make it any other way. :)
Can't wait to see you at Christmas. At least it's only a few months away.
Hi Ronald, thank you for your reply. I just read through the comment I left you and reading over it again, it sounds a little cold - which is not really how I meant it to sound. The reason why I left the reply, is because I felt like I identified with Dina's position. It is a good thing to help others, but when they say or do something that makes you question why you're doing it, it can be very heartbreaking.
I was pleased to read in your blog that you cared enough to, not just genuinely apologize to your friend, but to do it in a public forum. I believed that if she cared enough to do all she did for you, that she would also respect your apology & this is what I was trying to convey.
I hope what you've learned out of this is that everything each and every one of us say & do has consequences for others - often in a way that we could never even imagine. For this reason, I choose to only ever say kind, positive or at least constructive things. That way I'm usually always assured of never unintentionally affecting or hurting another.
We all know genuine friends aren't easy to come by & I'm happy to see you are man enough to admit when you're wrong, to protect your important friendships. We all mess up (we're only human after all) & that's ok, but the true test of our humanity is in how we rectify the pain we cause. I'm glad you have such a kind & compassionate friend. Take care of her (and you).
