Thanks for asking about me...I'm doing great. No, I have not gone to any al-anon meetings. Having my husband quit drinking has lifted a great weight off of me. It's been a roller coaster but he's getting better all the time...I guess he's "clearing up" - I never heard that term before...?? I have no idea how long it takes a person to clear up...?? I know he's feeling better, just having some anxiety, like at night sometimes. Not always.
