WTF???


I'm delighted to hear you're celebrating such a milestone. I have several relatives who've battled with the addiction. The pandemic has made it harder to get to meetings, but so far (God willing), they've maintained their sobriety.

The church that I'm a member of hosts two meetings. Coordinating them with other building uses (particularly a preschool) has not been without its issues, but they've persevered through the pandemic. For everyone's sake, I hope it gets easier to meet in the future.

Excellent, CHAS! One son passed his 9th year milestone in April.

And so may it ever continue for you both.
Getting through this ongoing challenge during the COVID pandemic is especially admirable.

I'm sorry to report he knows of numerous relapses in that period, including deaths.

Congratulations to you. You should be very proud.

My neighbor, who is my COVID buddy, has just reached her 30th year. She is an inspiration and also lets me know how hard it is to stay sober...Meetings are her life line. I have learned a lot from her.

Congrats on your decade!
