Dear Dwight,
We read the interview in the Post today. It seems like you are suffering, but that your suffering is helping you think clearly and well.
We just want you to know that we are thinking of you. That we accept you and embrace you with all of your flaws and all of your mistakes. We want you to know that the fact we have seen you struggle and fail has only made you more important to us.
When we first knew you as a young man, you were a figure of fantastic beauty in your ease and grace and effortlessness. But you were a faraway beauty. In your struggles, we think we have come to know you better. We can see ourselves in you, see our own mistakes, see ourselves struggling against our own best interests. And as we watch you climb up after each fall, you are once again our hero.
Dwight, we send you our very best wishes.
Please take care of yourself.
We miss you.
Love,
No Mas

Hello and thank you. I am a close friend of dwight's. I have known and loved him for nearly 25 years. In the years of our pure and innocent friendship I never knew the young boy, young man and hero as you described. People always questioned my faithfullness and loyalty to him and I had no explanation until now. You have summed up an angel in less than 5 minutes after reading that artical and it took me over twenty years to see in him what you saw. I quess it takes an angel to know and see an angel. Thank you so much for lifting up my hero and best friend. Also, I would like to let you know that we write each other once a week and he's doing much better. He's closer to God and together we are learning how to love ourselves.
Again, thank you so much for you kind and sincere words.
A now closer friend
