- An Ohio doctor who diagnosed her own breast cancer and operated on
herself while stranded in Antarctica last year says her dance with death
was nothing compared to "losing my children." Dr. Jerri Nielsen
describes her new book, Ice Bound, as a love letter to three teenage
children she hasn't seen in more than two years. "I never stop thinking
of them," Dr. Nielsen says in the February issue of Talk magazine.
"Sometimes I lie awake at night thinking, 'Why don't they remember what
a good mother I was - how much I loved them all those years?' Then I
realize I have no choice but to wait for them to come back." After a
messy divorce, says Dr. Nielsen, 48, her children sided with her
ex-husband, Jay, who has prevented her from contacting them. But the
former emergency room nurse hopes the memoir of her medical miracle at
the end of the Earth will somehow inspire a reunion with Julia, 19,
Benjamin, 18, and Alex, 15. 1/26/2001 "During last night's interview her parents said something about not wanting to be a part of what was hurting the children, and she said her biggest mistake was giving up custody. I think it was a case of her giving up custody, choosing not to continue the fight in court, thinking that was protecting the children, not realizing the devastation of parental alienation set in motion. I think the color of the sky in her world whether at the South Pole, or back at her home, is transformed beautifully by her character, and the divorce prank in this case is that the whole world gets to see what a wonderful lady this is who's been shut out of her children's world with the help of an ex with a variety of character defects. Too bad there isn't a shot to fix that." Cheryl
