Sponser go through really bad times as well as we do, that is why we need them soo badly. I do no think it is a bad idea to help her through a "rough" time but I don't know if I would reverse sponsership.....you still need a sponser. You can help each other, you KNOW each other. It is really up to you, I guess. My sponser went through a really bad time and I just let her go through it, talk to me when she needed to. The only thing was...she had 20 years clean time and I didn't.....I do not believe I could have really helped her.....she knows the program in and out...hopefully she will use it to her advantage....good luck in whatever you decide.....Kahlia
