TJ, great news!

It's my experience sobriety must come first. Period. Without it, there may be no family, home, husband, etc.

There is a real learning curve for everyone along the way.

Sometimes we don't get the support we feel we should.

Perhaps it's safe to say, he would rather see you sober, growing, becoming happy & usefully whole.

If he's not an alcoholic, he probably won't ever really get it.

He may feel, "Why not just quit and move along!"

Well, it doesn't work that way.

I was asked in the beginning by my sponsor to commit to 4-5 meetings per week, and asked to go until I wanted to go. Soon I was going daily, some days more.

And, there is Ala-non for him if he's not an alcoholic, it's an AMAZING program!

What does your sponsor think?
