@ greg .... Would you rather your friends lie or tell the truth? There is much to be said about a person that considers the truth to be a put down... or how you put "ran over by a bus". Pat is simply telling the truth.. In the end whit wasn't a saint she was "Human"..... she could SAAANNNGGG... but ultimately she was "HUMAN"... and the reality is that she struggled just like we all do.. I would rather hear about how she overcame then to hear that her life was full of wonderful flowers which we a llll know to be a lie. Get real and most of all, think Before you comment... Period.
