Thanks Dee74.
I think that when I see him in the next day or so, i'll feel it out. If the timing is right and the opportunity arises, I think I'll just intuitively know.
From the sounds of it, you have quite some time under your belt. I think it is such an amazing thing that you're still on these boards, helping young, flailing newbies like me... From the bottom of my heart, thank you. It's one thing to be in the company of other scared, freshly sober folks who can share in the minute by minute - but quite another to get some words from someone on the other side (and thriving, from what i can gather).
you're appreciated, your wife's a lucky lady!
