Mary Alice,

You know that I'm not good with words these days.

You're my friend, and I love you. I've never wanted you to be anybody, or anything else but what you are. You said it yourself, you need to be in the hospital. You need to be somewhere safe. You're not in a safe place right now. Mary Alice, I'm really a very selfish person. I've lost two people that I cared about to suicide on these boards, and it hurts like hell to lose someone you love. I know your pain is a very personal thing, and I won't disrespect you by saying I understand what you're going thru, because I don't. Everyone's pain is different. If there was something, anything I could do to help, I would. My friendship with you is special, just the way it's special with every friend I have here. I selfishly don't want to lose you. I don't want you to be number three. Please think about going back to the hospital, get the help that you need, and deserve. The job can wait, your life can't. You won't be alone. All of us here will be with you. If you tell me where you'll be, I'll call you everyday. I hope you decide to stay with us Mary Alice, I'd miss you so much if you were gone.

Love you,
Greg
