Phyllis also admitted having made the choice to drink and drive. "I had a couple of drinks a couple weeks ago, and it was maybe 15 miles north of my house," she says. "I thought it wasn't too far. I was meeting some friends. Had a couple of cocktails, two at the max. And I thought, 'You know what? It's only 15 miles. I'll be very careful. I'll go slow. I'll be fine. Should I take Lake Shore Drive? Maybe I won't.' I did, I was fine. And now I feel like there was a reason that The Oprah Winfrey Show found me."
