Hi all. Just starting day 21 and am feeling positive. Had some good news yesterday. After 30 years of on, off drinking (mostly on in the last 10 years), my blood test has come back normal for liver and kidney function My white cell count is high indicating infection so have to have a repeat test next week but I don't feel physically ill so I am hopeful that this will have righted itself.

Still going to a meeting a day (except Thursdays) and it just feels different this time around. I have heard it described as a lightbulb moment or a moment of clarity. I am under no illusions and know that I am right at the beginning of my journey to sobriety but with the help of SR and AA I feel hopeful. I have even opened a very tentative channel of communication with a HP. It still feels a little awkward and strange but somehow comforting.

Hope you all have a peaceful and sober day.
