| My Parents will be there.
Hi everyone,its so good to have these boards to share on.Thank you,to all the mod,s.
This Saturday my eldest son is getting married,to a wonderful girl..We are so,so happy.As im looking back,on old pictures of when he was young,i become sad for the moment.Sad in that both my parents,have passed away,and they will not be able to be there at his wedding.My parents,God Bless,them have been there for us for many years.Through all of that "stuff" that goes with both my husband and i being alcoholics.Through all the misery,,pain,anguish.They,were witness to my recovery but not my husbands.So we were still in the throws of alcohlism.My Dad passed away first,then soon after my Mom.The year before my Mom passed away i was dianosed with cancer,and was given a year to live.My husband was sober and came to programs 5 months before i recieved this news.I was suppose to die,before Mom.But through the Grace of God,only,im alive,grateful to be here.And now going to my son,s wedding.A miracle of God.And im thankful and so,so very grateful.My parents never got to witness the "good" thats happening in our lives today.They never witnessed both of us sober,recovering.The kids witnessing recovery,and praticing programs in their own lives.,from the litiure that we have here.The miracles of our family lives today.And im sad that my parents are not here,to see.And through my tears i realise,that yes they will be there.They will be there in "spirit".In our hearts.In our minds.In our very "being".Yes,my Parents are comming to my son,s wedding.My son is placing 2 empty chairs,in their honor.Thank YOU,God,...Such amazing Grace..
