Gloria
Monday, November 9, 9/8C
At 53, Gloria prides herself on being a good cook and an independent, fun-loving woman. But Gloria uses her cooking and charm to manipulate her family into letting her drink as much as she wants. Gloria had difficulty raising her children, and was married to an abusive man. At 42, Gloria got breast cancer and underwent chemotherapy and radiation but did not stop drinking. Now Gloria drinks and drives, misses work, and spends all her money on alcohol. Gloria's family has had enough of her selfishness, and they're ready for an intervention.

I would have to say Chris' Episode touched me. As a parent of a gay alcoholic, his story was so hurtful to me to see his family hide their true feelings about Chris' sexuality. I felt really bad for his Partner too about the whole Uncle thing. That had to sting a bit having to hear those things on national tv. I also liked Tressa'a story. These are my favorite 2 episodes hands down.
