Dear Dr. Laura,

Several years ago I called you regarding my parents and step parents.  My mother and step dad were upset that I started talking to my "sperm donor" and his wife after several years of being told family lies. That day you changed my life.  

You asked me why my step dad and my mother were upset.  At the time, I had no answer for you. You then told me to call my mother and ask her.  Well, I did. Then I called you back immediately, as she had no answer.  I will never forget what you told me that day...."If you walked into a store and had to pick you mother out...would I pick her?"  I said "No..." You told me that I needed a mother to bake some blueberry muffins and love me no matter what.

Jump forward a few years, my mother still hasn't talked to me. I just turned 43 a couple of days ago and she never bothered to call. 

I just wanted to drop you this email, and let you know how much I appreciate what you do, not only for me but for all of your callers.  I listen to you every day and always ask myself what would Dr. Laura do?

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being you and for being a stand-in mother, not only for me, but for a lot of your callers. Your son is a very lucky guy.

Thank You Again!!!

Sincerely,

Sarah
