Making amends to someone is more than simply telling them "I'm sorry."

Now, he has an awesome sponsor, an awesome boyfriend (who is his sponsor's younger brother), and working The Steps (until he reaches The Eighth Step). Will he find the strength to try and contact TJ again to make amends for what he did?
