(Updated April 30, 2013. See pictures below.)

I received a call recently from someone from a television show called “The Test.” Mind you, I don’t even have a television that works, so I know very little about what is on television. My husband was so kind as to give me a television that stopped working shortly after he gave it to me, so I asked for an old television that was out in the garage he had wanted to get rid of. (At the time, we had 4 televisions.) Along with all my other things, I never got it.

In December, I tried to call Phill (Phillip Roey) about a dentist bill that he was supposed to have paid when we were married, and found out he blocked my number. The last time I had called him was in Sept. of the year before, while we were still married. This is a man who can not face the truth about his daughter and would rather throw away his wife. Apparently, calling your husband once every 15 months must be some sort of harassment, and Phill felt the need to block my phone calls as well as keep all my things. Occasionally, I’ve wondered how Phill will resolve all this when he is willing to admit what a terrible mistake he made. Of course, he discovered that his daughter lied about her friend being raped, lied about a neighbor whom Emma claimed was a real slut, drug user, and had abortion(s), lied about one of her closest friend’s, Kayla Benefield’s mother and grandparents, claiming the grandparents were white supremacists, etc., and he still couldn’t question his daughter about her lies, so I don’t expect that to really change. This is a man in real denial and, as his own attorney put it, letting Emma run the show.

But, I digress. This blog is about Emma. When I get it all written for the book, Phill will have his own sections, but right now I want to focus on Emma and her problems.

Unfortunately, after 3 weeks in Europe, I am working a lot these next few weeks, so I have no time coming up to work on my writing. I will probably write a few short essays. I do have something planned for Mother’s Day about Sandra Brooks McCravy, Emma’s new mommy, so stay tuned for that.

Sooooooooooo, the other night, after work, I discovered I had a message on my phone from a television show called “The Test” and it is done by Dr. Phil’s son or something. Apparently, they take stories like ours and put them through the test, whether it be DNA, Polygraphs, etc. As much as Emma is proud of her acting skills, and as much as she likes attention, she might want to do this, but I still don’t think she would go on this type of show because she’s too afraid of being found out.

Thanks for tuning in. I really didn’t want to get snarky on this page, but some of it is going to get ugly. I will be happy to take down this page anytime Emma wants me to. She knows what she needs to do.

(If you are new to this blog, you may want to read the posts “In a Nutshell” or go to July and read “Sending out a Letter.” Both of these posts give a brief description of what happened. As Emma’s mom, I blogging my experiences with Emma and the things she did/does. This is a child who made up a story about rape, accused a priest of molesting her, and then as her attorney was about to file a lawsuit against the priest and the church, Emma accused her mother of physical abuse to stop the lawsuit because she knew her lies were about to be discovered. Emma is now attending Piedmont college in Demorest, Ga. She has been telling people she is engaged to a young man, Tyler Buchheim., originally from Liberty Township, Ohio, who is an architecture student at Notre Dame (fromerly of Lakota High School, West Chester, Ohio.) Emma does not care who she hurts to get what she wants, and I hope for Tyler’s sake, Emma gets some help before she gets married. )
