From the get go I just have been honest, anybody that knew me, well knew I had an alcohol problem. Thing was I isolated big time, in my LUCY kitchen! I drank with my neighbor. I went into Rehab one Monday. My husband told my family. I was gone for 30 days, I got support.
Socially? We hang with folks we've met in sobriety. It's been 12 years total for the family. So, about the only time we're asked for a drink?? On trips & vacations. A club soda, a 7up, that's it. I hope I can be just a living example of how you're never too old to change your life for the better.
