Getting sober would stop the chain of
abuse and addiction that was carried
on from a sick parent into my own little
family yrs ago.
I too swore id never be like my mom
who was abusive to me because of her
own demons inflicted on me. I never
abused my 2 babies like she did me
but I did inherit the alcohol addiction
and stopped it when I entered recovery
back in 1990, some 26 yrs ago.
I am proud of my 2 beautiful, talented,
babies with no addictions who have grown
up to have families of their own and living
successful lives.
That to me is are blessings and gifts
in recovery I cherish and am grateful
for each sober day I live.
Learning how to stop the chain of
abuse and addiction is the key from
hopefully passing it on.
