my mum seen this ep of Oprah, and mentioned it to me. it was the first time she'd thought about whether she'd said anything that might have upset me!!! thankfully, most of the time she's pretty tactful, but my dad has absolutely no tact AT ALL - was a good opportunity to talk to her about the things he was saying, and how it has been affecting not only myself, but DH as well.
Keen - DH and i both saw that Oprah show, and it was great. Oprah said some dumb things and the lady was really great with her answers. She didn't try and pretend that it was all OK, and I hope she made some people think. Oprah asked her if she was 'at peace' with her situation, and thankfully she said 'NO'. Then Oprah did the whole 'but i know people who adopt and then fall pregnant - why don't you do that'. I'm so pleased that the lady didn't just try and play nice and say yes - she was totally honest and it was great!
(BTW - i never watch Oprah and neither does DH, but he woke up early from a night shift and i was home too - funny. He even asked me if i felt the same as the lady on the show and i said YES - she's just like me!)
Hope everyone had a restful weekend.
