Smile i almost died...but lived

wow...things have been really busy lately with work, AA, aftercare and checkups for the baby on the way. wow, he is so needy and isnt even born yet. sorry i havent wrote in a while things got crazy. i got a protection order on my now ex boyfriend and he hasnt been heard form since!! i got a new work schedule last week and i swear it almost killed me, 630 am till 2. i am not used to getting up that early. it was a struggle AA has been okay. i am ordered to do 90 meetings in 90 days and just started about a week and a half ago. i am actually starting to open up more about things and i dont always pass eaither. my aftercare group meets on monday nights for an hour and a half so thats not too bad...
so i suppose why i titled this the way i did. i wanted to say that without you all and my AA group and my wonderful sponser i would have died and taken my unborn son with me. i am 6 and a half months along and on fathers day this year i overdosed and they said that i was so lucky to have made it, and that my baby made it too. i have been on a pump to stop pre term labor for almost a month now and that is no fun. some days i want to just stay in bed because i am scared i will go out and drink or drug again, but i have to think of my child who has no control over what hapens to him and i love him so much. i know now that if it want for him i would be dead and if i ever go back i will surely die. thank you guys so much for all your support. i know i cant do it without you guyz.
so i dont know what i am going to name him yet so i was waondering if you guys had any suggestions. i want different yet simple with a meaning...thanks guys

Be sure whatever you pick ...the initials
