I was wondering how to get Catherine’s attention. This is so embarrassing, do other countries teens act as ridiculously as ours? I’m really worried about Roberts sanity and health with all of the chaos. I hope he has someone to trust and lean on who is watching him carefully. A true friend or parent maybe. He’ll be the next to get messed up on drugs and then?????? I feel like he needs a quiet week in a town/suburb where he can live the quiet, normal life for a minute. Get his feet back on the ground. So, I was so impressed with Catherine in all of the interviews, she seems so “real”. I thought she might be one of the only people to see, or care about this. I hope there is some way to reach her or that she reads these from time to time. Rob, certainly has an open invitation to the real life in my home. Maybe I’m a bit to close to this since he reminds me of my first love, also a Robert, soulful and funloving. Well, that’s it.. I cant believe I did this. I’ve never been a “fan”, but I cant stop thinking about this. Thanks for listening
