Dr. Laura,
I'm listening to a podcast and just heard the gentleman who wrote a previous email of the day thanking you for making him the husband he is. You cried very happy tears.
I was touched by this and wanted to share with you that it's true -- you do reach many of us listeners even when you have days thinking you are not. I have had many "ah-ha" moments in listening to your show. Even one during a call to you regarding my mother-in-law where you agreed her behavior was bad, but the problem was with my husband. You and Efim were kind enough to send me an MP3 of the recording to play for my husband which I did! Because of you, I have matured and learned to become more direct without being nasty, and learned to think with logic and not my emotions. Because of these things I have a much stronger marriage. I will not lie, calling you was extremely scary for me and I was terribly nervous. I put my big girl panties on, called, and am very thankful I did. My only regret is that I did not learn of you sooner in my life.
So again, thanks for all you do - keep it up - your logic IS reaching many listeners.
Raquel
