10 Days

My doc is crack cocaine and I am 10 days clean. I got to see my babies last Saturday for the first time in 6 months. Everytime I start getting tempted I just keep thinking about their little faces and how they screamed out of happiness for me when I walked through the door. I was scared they wouldn't remember me but they definitely did not forget. It was heartbreaking when I left. They got in the back of my car and would not get out. I have got to do this and do it right.

Hi Arkansaschicky,

I'm glad to hear that you are 10 days clean. And, your children's faces should help to keep you going when things get tough. Do this for yourself and your children.

AC,

So sorry you're having to see the babies that way. Maybe this time you might want to think about having some support around you. The odds are very small that you will stay clean trying it alone.

Please stay with us, we'll do what we can to help

even though it is hard and your addiction will scream at you to get high, those babies are soooo worth it. I have learned you can't buy back the precious time. My babies are still young but I want to be a positive influence in their life. I want to be present, they say the mother is the first teacher. keep on posting and keep coming back, you are worth it....

Prayers to you,

Lisa
