Pk's fiance works second shift but helps with baby as much as possible. She's just got such bad depression that she feels hopeless and helpless and worthless. I do what I can for her but mostly I pray she gets some relief.

Yes you do Tanya, you will hear exactly what you need to hear and who knows you just might help another alcoholic by being there. Chin up, especially now that you had that nice facial and carry the message honey.

Donna :

Love you. Humour saves me so many times...yes, it does.

Just can't help myself. After all the things I've been through in my life..I have found

(now)..that a laugh and a smile are always just around the corner. I look for them.

Yep Stoney. You know my head hurts between all that went on last night and all day today. I'm also tired because I didn't get a good night sleep, very restless. I will get a good night sleep tonight. Heading out to meetings, have a good rest of the night Stone. See ya in the morning because you will probably be sleeping when I get in tonight. Be good my sweet, sweet friend.

Yes Nel. She also got stitches in her face from last night. I posted on the previous part about my phone call with her sister. I am tired Nel, very tired.
I'm glad your sponsee did the right thing. Love good news. Still haven't heard anything.
