TV talk show host Sally Jessy Raphael is beginning to talk about her daughter's death last Feb. 2. Allison Raphael, 33, died of an accidental overdose of prescription and over-the-counter drugs and her mom tells Ladies Home Journal the impact on her has been negative. "I wish I could tell you I learned things from it or that it helped me in some way, but it hasn't helped. It has diminished me. I do not laugh the way I used to. And there's been a trememdous loss of faith."
