Ha! The answer to that is a resounding NO. NO! With exclamation points!

See, that was easy, right? *cough*

Based on several addiction resources, I've heard it said that one year sober is probably the best benchmark they have for making it, so I've had that in my head as the goal. I'm still not certain that that's a reality, but I've got maybe a year in me before I get fed up with it, and that's WITH the momentum he's had in early recovery.
