Re: text: newt p/adrian m I'm fairly certain this is a forgivable instance, but I understand.
Suffice it to say, Adrian, I understand your valid concern about Patrick. I share it. I've considered the options. I wouldn't do anything to hurt your brother. I'd rather he hate me than not, if it meant he was to be better. This isn't something I did to be liked and it's not impulsive or short-sighted. This is better for Patrick and his future.
