I'm glad you've decided not to let this stop you on your path of recovery.

How disappointing to read, though.

I've found sometimes - you have to talk to a drunk ... as if they're still drunk.
That's one personality trait I'm grateful for having learned tending bar. I now possess the capacity to jump right in someone's 'doo-doo' with both feet. Don't know if it's a GOOD thing , but it sure makes people back off in a big way when needed.

Never ever let anyone or anything get in between you and your recovery.

Recovery has to come first, possibly from now on,
if it's going to work.
I agree with Carol, and surround yourself with women in the Program.
