Message from DonW - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Don has asked me to let all of you know he is taking a little break from
SR to take care of himself. He is doing well and needs some time away...
He did not say when he would return, but until he does, he knows we love, care and will be here when he gets back...

Love ya Don.....

Gabe · 12-21-2005, 04:15 PM

First things first.
Take care of yourself Don.
Sending some light your way.

Good for you Don. I'm glad your taking some time for yourself.

Sorry I missed this.. But,, Don, if you are out there anywhere,, just know that you are missed..

You do need to take care of yourself, that's for sure. You have done an excellent job here. Know that we all appreciated it very much!!! You are missed..

Tell your wife hello..

Thanks Don,, I miss your sweet kind, nature,,

Love,
Becky

Don W · 01-02-2006, 08:09 PM

Thank you all. I have been lost for a few weeks. I chose to drink rather to face my life. This was a mistake, for those that may chose the the same path. All the clubs remembered me but, alcoholism also remembered me. I'm ashamed to come back with tail between my legs. However, I understand this is false pride. I have stayed away knowing that you all had good things to say about me. I don't deserve them but, it is nice to know there is hope

In memory of miracle · 01-03-2006, 07:34 AM

I'm glad your back, keep the faith. ((( Don )))

quercusalba · 01-03-2006, 08:08 AM

Don - you *do* deserve the good things we say.

I'm glad to see you back.

--anne

shutterbug · 01-03-2006, 11:09 AM

I second that! You most certainly DO deserve great things said about you. We all make mistakes, but what makes you special is that you recognized that and were strong enough to come back from it. All is not lost my friend! You should be proud of yourself for all you have made it through!

Super glad to have you back!

Hugs!

angelgirl · 01-03-2006, 12:28 PM

Don,,

We say the good things about you,, because you do deserve them... I promise you that..

Love,
Becky
