Hi, rummi here, an alcoholic. I guess I am grateful that I can still be grateful. My oldest son, Trey, committed suicide two years ago. He would have been 33 yrs old tomorrow. Boy, the pain just doesn't stop. The truly amazing thing is that I never once thought about drinking. If that's not a miracle! I was surrounded by my AA family, who walked me through the grief and still do. I made a decision 23 years ago to turn my will and my life over to God and grief comes with the territory. I've never asked why, only asked God to help me accept. I am blessed to be a member of Alcoholics Anonymous. Thanks for letting me share!
