Thankyou aa - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

tricky164 · 10-09-2009, 01:55 PM

I want to express my gratitude to the program of AA and the fellowship of AA.

When i got here i was a lost soul, i had been in numrable prisons, institutions and been near an alcoholic death a couple of times. i had two heart attacks and a stroke, everybody in my life stayed away from me, i had stolen from friends, family and anybody else that came near me.
people would see me comming and hide or lock thier doors and pretend they wernt in.
i lost my two sons, who i havent seen for some 12 years, my wifes, my homes, my sanity, my dignity, my self respect, my self esteem and nearly my life.

2 yrs and the 12 steps later....

tonight one of my sponcees asks me to be god father to his baby boy !!

WOW !! i have a tear in my eye and a lump in my throat......
i am so blessed to have found this program, i will never be able to pay back what it has given me...........

THANKYOU AA.

I don't use AA in my recovery, but I'm glad you found what works for you

You might want to post this in the AA/12step area too!
