Dakota.. I just noticed... it's been a year since both you and I found this site and this
thread that has helped me so much.
I am so thankful for Dakota, Cinderellawkids, Babs, CMC, FrankiB, Sadness and all the other special people who have dropped in on our thread along the way to share their experience and grow our recoveries together. I am thankful for the newcomers here like Lifechange. It means alot to me to hear the "other side"... from prison to recovery. There is hope of recovery ... Dakota and Lifechange give me hope. There's also failures if the addict is just not ready to stop. Those stories are important to share too, as we don't know which path our addict will take, but we can learn and grow from the experience of others.
So just a little thank you to everyone here for taking the time to share! Keep sharing!
