Brenda Myles, who was also interviewed by Nightline for the girls w/AS show,
received an email from the producer telling her it is airing on Tuesday
December 4th at 11:30. If you aren't able to stay up that late it'll be on
their website shortly afterward (I don't know how long it takes for them to
post it) at
www.abcnews.com/nightlineAgain, we have no idea what they'll show or not show. Nothing like being
interviewed on national television minutes after my son had the biggest
meltdown in over three years (on camera no less) and while I was
simultaneously trying to watch the other kids who were constantly
interrupting. (Note to self: stick to WRITING). But I'm holding good
thoughts remembering that it's "for the greater good" and irregardless of
how embarrassing it will be to see ourselves on TV in all our human
failings--hopefully it'll help others. That is, after all, the reason we
agreed to do it in the first place. Brenda's related interview will most
assuredly be brilliant and worth watching the program for that reason alone.
