Amikolle’s Mom;
I am writing to you, to inform you and your husband, that I have changed your names in the writings in my blog, to something else.
As I heard your husband yelling to Amikolle, that he wanted to sue me for Defamation of Character, I was wondering why since I had not written anything ill about neither of you. My writings are a telling of a story, that is real and has touched and affected my life as much as yours, and it is a story told from my experiences. If you think that you don’t want to be part of that story because it degrades your status of what the world can read, that is different. Nevertheless just to be clear, here is the Definition of Defamation of Character, in case your husband wants to go on and sue me, so he doesn’t waste time and money that he could put willingly into his daughter’s recuperation and medical help:
In law, defamation (also called calumny, libel, slander, and vilification) is the communication of a statement that makes a false claim, expressly stated or implied to be factual, that may give an individual, business, product, group, government or nation a negative image. Slander refers to a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report, while libel refers to any other form of communication such as written words or images. Most jurisdictions allow legal actions, civil and/or criminal, to deter various kinds of defamation and retaliate against groundless criticism. Related to defamation is public disclosure of private facts which arises where one person reveals information which is not of public concern, and the release of which would offend a reasonable person.” Unlike libel or slander, truth is not a defence for invasion of privacy.
As the definition stands, I never represented your names in a malicious manner, which if I had, would be Slander. If I had printed my blog to a print media format, it would have been Libel. My writings are my memories living the experience that has been loosing and recovering Danielle when she has gone out. As the definition above dictates (taken from the maryland library of law, and from Lexis Nexis, the general bible of Lawyers), truth is not a defence for invasion of privacy means that you can’t accuse me of invasion of privacy because I was writing about the truthful events surrounding the disappearance and recovery of your daughter, and naming places or people that participated in it.
That being said, I have removed your name and your husband from my blog. I wanted to advice you, that I didn’t do it for neither of you, I did it so you don’t scream anymore to your daughter. This is the same exact behavior you said it wouldnt happen when she was in recovery. On a last note, I said good morning to your husband today, and he failed to mention any of this. Next time if you both have a problem, call me and scream at me in the phone, dont take it off on your daughter.
I am copying your daughter on this email. Please do not scream at your daughter or take it out on her, this is not her doing, this letter is from me to you and your husband, anything you have to argue, scream or discuss with me, do it to my attention.
Thank you for reading and have a good day.

I woke up at 10am thanks to some asshole who came knocking on my door. It was my ex-gf’s boyfriend coming to pick up some of the shit I had from her, that I had been trying to return. Motherfucker woke me up and I thought it was someone coming to tell me something important.
So after he left, I went to play Castle Crashers, for about 3hrs then I get a phone call. In the caller ID it said Md Satellite TV, and I’m like “wtf”, I really didnt want to talk to some phone spammer, but I picked it up anyway. It was Danielle calling me from Massie. What a relief. We spoke for about half an hour, she told me although she didnt have phone privileges yet, that she asked and they let her call me.
At the end of the convo, she asked me very quietly if I could do something for her, and I said sure… She asked me to smuggle her some cigarettes. The facility doesnt allow them to smoke, but some people smoke out on the porch. I told her I didnt know, because I don’t want her to get into trouble, specially if I have to smuggle them on my socks.
I think I am going to invent some excuse and tell her I forgot them. I really dont care if she smokes, but if its prohibitted to smoke in there, I don’t want her to get in trouble. Or I might… I don’t know yet.

A lot of you are going Yay! Its friday.. Well I am not. I am looking forward to a quiet, weekend. Danielle’s parents are off for a relaxing weekend in Ocean City, (don’t worry I didnt get invited), and I dont know what the rest of my “frieds” will be doing since I havent heard of Jen in ages, Jerry and Patrick are gone… Robert might be around, but he will probably be workiingon his house.
I’ll just stay home, play my games, sleep. I wish i could go somewhere and grab a nice long island iced tea, sigh if I were in PR this would be a shannon weekend for sure. But I think what I need is to wind down old style, which is doing the least amount of things in the most amount possible.
Then my friends ask me “how are you feeling” and I tell them, then they give me the mantra of “Well its for her own good…”, I know… but can’t I miss her? I do miss her.
I am a pussy I know. She has been gone 3 days and I miss her the only thing that I am at piece with is that she is in a good place now, and all I have to do is to wait for the new upgraded, Danielle to come back home.

Well Amikolle left yesterday for her new try at rehab. I must say she did a lot of work to get where she is now. She did all the research, all the phone calls, paperwork, you name it she did it.
She first applied for a place Bowling Greens in Pennsilvania. After the place confirmed her by phone, that she could stay 20 days, with no co-pay and they told her she had to be there monday at 5:30pm. We drove 80 miles into KKK County (drove by famous KKK town Rising Sun), and into the place. When we arrived, the person there didn’t knew anything that was offered to Amikolle, she said Amikolle had to be pre-certed even if she was going to stay partially… Well it was a mess, so we drove back to Maryland. Amikolle was a bit frustrated because she had gone through all this work and wanted to get help. But the drive was fun and it relaxed her a bit.
On tuesday, it was hell for her, because trying to find if Bowling Greens was going to take her or not, and BG said that because she had no previous relapse with her current plan they didnt want to accept her offer and were demanding a ridiculous amount of money. So I told her to fuck them, and to concentrate on the other place she was aiming for, a facility called Joseph S. Massie in Cumberland, Md.
At the end of the day in tuesday, Massie confirmed her pickup on wednesday morning. The problem with Massie is that they are tighter than a chicken’s asshole for some things. But its all for the best of the patient, which in this case is Danielle. There can be no contact with Amikolle for the next 7 days, she cannot receive phone calls of any kind, and if she received one, it has to be a supervised one. We can send her letters and postcards all we want… Then after 7 days she can call us and we can call her only if we are approved by her counselors. Then the following weekend we can go spend time with her, from 12 midday till 5pm. But we had to go to an obligatory meeting that was like 2hrs.
I have not spoken to her since she was taken over there, but I am calculating that she will be there until Sept 24 more or less.
In the meantime I am going to pray, think of her and play Castle Crahsers.
