I thought that story was so wonderful!!! I am so glad you were able to tell it - it made me feel so great to be able to tell my story and help all the young viewers from making a huge life mistake. Have you already taped the Mtv thing? They were so nice, weren't they? I can't wait until the shows air!

love

I think that is so awesome you guys are able to do these things, MTV

and all. I wish I could get someone to be interested in my story, as

I think I have a pretty damned good story to tell. Esp with the way I

am now able to work out and all. I really think that it is too bad

they assume 40 is too old. Look at the way they promote Tom Cruise

movies on MTV and he is older than me! Hee hee, the age thing tends

to work against us more as females than as males doesn't it. I think

I would surprise them as I certainly am in shape for a 40 year old.

Probably could kick some of their younger little butts in the work

out area hee hee.

Anyhow some day I will find someone interested in me. I was thinking

of trying Montel . Has anyone written to him yet?

Hey Shari! Mtv was here about a month ago, I guess. It was hectic

(I'm SURE you know about that), but fun. I'm glad I got to do it and

I can't wait til it airs, although I'm a little nervous about it! Liz

was a trip! We've been emailing back and forth getting pictures

together and stuff and she was talking about coming back into town to

hang out with my friends (that were with me the whole time they were

here) and me. She is funny. Do you know yet when yours will air. I

think she said some time in January? Colleen

Colleen,

That is so exciting that other publications have contacted you for

your story! You go girl, I am really proud of you! I know you are

making a difference in women's lives by your willingness to speak

out. Don't ever stop!

How are you doing? Are things settling down for you?

Are you feeling any better? I hope your recent change in

circumstances hasn't set you back...

Hugs,

Patty
