Defining Diego is the story of one Guatemalan adoptee and his mother, a reporter who documented their journey from his earliest steps, as they try to understand how international adoption boomed and busted, and what it all means for families like theirs, with feet in two worlds. When Laurie Stern set out to adopt a baby from Guatemala in 1999, she thought the process would be pretty straightforward. Lots of people were doing it.

In this segment, Mistress Alisa helps addicts to understand what to expect from counselors, as well as what addicts need to be able to expect from themselves. Addicts are required to work for their own freedom. The truth is that no one can "fix" you. This is your journey and others can support you, at best. But there is no one who can "fix" you or take all of your problems away. Consider the amount of time that you invested in getting yourself into a precarious situation. Now, expect to have to work even harder to get yourself out of that same situation. No one can fix or heal an addict. That responsibility is his own. The best anyone else can do is support the addict; hold him accountable; hold up the mirror; require honest interactions. But the fixing - or the healing - of the addict is up to the addict, himself.
