For me this took a very long time, as I did not have time for alot of years to be an alcoholic. I had a demanding job - had to travel extensively. For many it takes very little time.

You better believe I am not going to give up on you! I am so glad that you can be truthful with me. I was very surprised that you took offense to my comment about going to an AA meeting with you. I was just being my "practical pig" self and thinking of the logistics of it. It is very good for me to hear all of this. Keep trying Carol!

What's most important is that I don't give up on myself.

Cathy - I did not take offense at your comment. A little hurt maybe, but it has helped me to further understand how many just DON'T understand. And why I am writing about all of this. It's therapeutic for me I guess, and something I promised myself I would do - and hadn't until the last couple of days. It's been a month now since I got home. Things have not been the best, but really did not expect they would be.

I love you dear Sister, and I'm going to be OK.

Thank you Sara for reading, and sharing. I never miss reading your journal and marvel at your style of writing, and your choice of words. You are very gifted. I missed you while I was gone for that 30 days, and I haven't even seen you in years. What did we all do before computers brought so many of us together?
