That's it really.

A bit amazing when I think how many years I struggled trying to stop. From the age of 26 to 42 so 16 years or so. I wondered if I'd ever get it.

SO glad I did. It truly is a different life now and I don't even think about drinking now.

A worthwhile fight even if it did take so long.

Thanks to everyone for being here. You are all a part of my recovery.

Stu.

Wonderful job Chopper! I struggled a long time, too - but we never gave up, and now here we are with years of sobriety.
