I want to thank everyone on SR for making this milestone possible. I spent years telling myself I needed to quit drinking. Trying and failing over and over. I did not succeed until I came here. Coincidence? Hardly.

I wish I could personally thank those whose advice and support was instrumental in my recovery by name. But I am afraid I'd leave someone off. So thanks to all my SR sisters and brothers.

I would be remiss if I didn't thank the forum leaders, moderators, and community greeters whose wisdom, guidance, and patience is immeasurable.

Two years sober...I'm blessed.
