Dear Dr. Laura,
My husband and I married at 21. We were immature, he was a Marine and was gone a lot, and we had two kids right away. After his four years with the Marines he got a traveling job and was gone even more. All the petty fights and immature behaviors added up and I hated him. I mean really hated him. Literally, if I looked at him it made me sick to my stomach. I had resolved myself to leaving him as soon as the kids were in school.
I was lonely and bored stuck at home with two little kids. I was hungry for adult conversation and started listening to talk radio just for company. That's when I met you and my life changed. You taught me so many life lessons over that radio. I started acting like I liked my husband and pretty soon I did. We have now been married for eighteen years and I can honestly say every day with that man is amazing. Back then, I could have never imagined the depth of our love today. You saved my marriage, not to mention all the other wonderful things you taught me. I have been a stay-at-home homeschooling mom for all these years. I have good, honest, kind, children. My life has been blessed with your knowledge. I thank God that he put you in my life all those years ago. My life is amazing because of it.
Thank You and God Bless,
Carrie
