Hi Alex,

I saw the show and was awed by what you did for your siblings..i know i wouldn't be able to do what you did although i'm almost twice your age..

god bless all of you and hopefully you and your mother will be reunited again one day..

I agree that there's two sides to every story, but my children also went through a divorce. My time away from them is lost, and I wish every second could be brought back. And I was there for them as much as possible, but they did have a father and his side of the family to spend time with, so I had time away from them and don't understand how any mother could let any man keep them from their children. I thank GOD EVERY DAY!!!,....EVERY DAY for my children, and would do anything possible for them. They live in different states, and I don't get to see them often, so am really confused as to how she could afford to run away from them, but couldn't afford to run back to them when communications failed. The article says that she met the man before leaving......sounds to me like a cop out, and if she loves them at all...a slap in the face is nothing compared to the story of, oh i have all these reasons for still not being united with my children! Sorry, but until she faces those demons.......she must live WITH THEM!!! I thank Rachael, and the show for uniting the family on live TV. Some of us would love a plane ticket to see their children because they are far away and miss them! I'm sure their mother would have had that opportunity if she had wanted it! Every person has their own set of problems to face, and i feel for them all, but WAKE UP SHOULD BE MOM! WHO'S IMPORTANT HERE????
