The Family We Choose
01/07/2016

Hi Dr. Laura,

Words are not enough to express my gratitude to you for your guidance. My son was married back in 2014. We were worried for years over the relationship, but we never stood in their way. At one point, he and his wife stopped talking to us. His wife had told some lies to our family and needless to say, it caused a lot of damage. It was shocking to me that some of my closest friends believed something that was not true, without even talking to me. They had known me for my entire life. I felt confused and hurt that my family had assumed everything was true.

Since this event, they have chosen to cut ties with us. It has been the hardest year of my Husband's and my life. Listening to your show every day has helped me through my darkest hours. Hearing others in similar situations has helped me realize that I still have a family...my Husband's family! They have always been a wonderful support. Listening to your show has also taught me to be grateful for the family that I do have and to treat them the way they deserve.  

Thank you Dr Laura. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
