I'm sure Bethany's story was especially hard for IV because she also lost her daughter to cancer a few years ago. Her daughter was in her early 30's but it was her child.

IV's quiet because she is STILL going through her own grief process with her daughter. I can understand her being able to treat someone with cancer, but not someone who's own grief at the loss of a daughter is so raw and new. IV's own situation is not that old. It will take years before she is in that space safely. At this point much of IV's therapy would be about herself instead of her client. I've said other places, that I've lost a child. It takes years and you cannot hurry the process. And the reality is that you will never be the same again. It is a growth period/process that most of us would chose not to go through; and we're drug through it kicking and screaming. Peace, Kathy

LAST EDITED ON 04-04-06 AT 10:28 PM (EST)Why was she silent? Bethany replaced Jill and should be coached by Her Magnificence, Iyanla. The 'in your face' drama queen asking badgering almost each houseguest she coaches with "what are you going to do" has been silenced. {gasp} Iguana should be coaching Bethany and she should have been asking more questions of her. Iguana was silent through the whole storytelling and that is very, very, very unusual for her not to have something to say. Perhaps she didn't feel the need to be a clown because the drama of what Bethany had to share was enough in itself. Apparently, Iguana was passed over for the job of LCing Bethany. Rhonda says she is Bethany's LC, which means she, Rhonda, is lifecoaching 4 houseguests now and Her Magnificence, Iyanla, is lifecoaching 2. Something isn't right. Bethany should have gone to Her Magnifigence. SO is desperate. Looks like this is their last hoorah and they are trying to redeem themselves for all of the crap/crud they've put on the airways over the past 3 years and made it seem like the show was legit. I don't agree that there isn't good stuff there, it's just too bad it has to be dug for through all of the nonsense : fake drama, misleading promos, editing, hairdos, outfits, makeup, fake nails, halfffff-truths, false eyelashes, jewelry, art, fancy houses, gossiping and backbiting, cat fights, and fame hungry houseguests. The ship is going down and they are trying to say : See, we weren't so bad. If Rhonda Britten thinks she is going to help this woman with a few whacky exercises, she is delusional. I don't want to watch this. But it's part of life, so I guess I will. I think the LC's are preparing us for the end of the show and what better way then teaching us how to grieve a loss? I can only see a final reunion show of all SO members who wish to attend after all of the current ladies have graduated. The final goodbye. Which is ok because nothing lasts forever and from the minute we are born we are experiencing necessary and not so necessary losses. To live well is to grieve well. Bring it on!!!! Grieve and move on.

Bethany's story is so raw and so heartbreaking and for some reason I flashed onto Lisa 1 dry heaving in the bowl when she told her story. Kind of puts this year of SO into perspective.

I thought IV seemed more bored than anything....pursing her lips and acting like she did not want to be there. I think that as an LC one should put personal experiences on the back burner and tune in to the needs of the client. I kept trying to read her face for any sign of empathy or compassion......none. Most of the time she is hard on the newbies, so I was actually relieved that she was silent with Bethany's intro into the house.

I think Iyanla remained quiet because she has lost a daugher herself. For once, she can identify with someone else's feelings. Shout it out to the universe. She is human after all. Iyanla probably didn't want to be her life coach because it would remind her too much of her own issues. Just a thought.

i can see the point about IV and her daughter, but she lost her child to cancer and still was able to be Alisons LC. i think IV is doing more speaches and what not , things not SO related. probably knew/knows the show is toasted.

It was refreshing that Iyanla was quiet, and that Rhonda was kind and compassionate. The LC's are usually challenging and sarcastic when new houseguests are telling their story. I suppose they do it in the name of breaking down the person's shield or protective barrier, or whatever lies they think the person is telling themselves...but IMO it is not very welcoming. I thought to myself that they better be compassionate with Bethany.

It could be that the producer's didn't want her to have another HG with a cancer story in the same season because then it would appear that she is the cancer LC (no offense intended to any cancer survivor). It would look more like survivor support rather than an LC/HG relationship. Nothing wrong with survivor support but I think the producers are wanting to keep up that professional LC charade.
