dd, 1 yr 7 months ago I was in a nursing home . I had fallen into a depression and lost 80 lbs. Slept 22 hours a day and lost all use of my arms and legs and speech, Was in a diaper and on a feeding tube. They thought I would be in an institution the rest of my life. When ever I feel sorry for myself, I think back to those dark days and a month prior to that I was in a psych ward 17 days twice back to back after a seizure due to withdrawals.

If I get down I don't stay there for very long today, nothing will ever be as bad as that. Had no hope whatsoever. I was catatonic.


Today I am so grateful to just scratch an itch. Thanks to my Lord!

Clean and Sober and very Grateful!
