Thanks for your honesty and bravery. I'm checking in here again, much like you and so many others, after the on and off, the respites and the relapses. Last week I took my son and his friend on a short vacation that was supposed to include my XABF and his daughter. Again, more times than I can remember, I ended up alone, because of a relapse the week(s) before and my putting my foot down that it's not OKAY to lock me out and go MIA and reappear and put on a show like everything's cool.
I'm proud of you, and happy that you are enjoying the sun and surf, and that you have more reason to convince yourself that there is a beautiful life out there when we decide we deserve it.
