What a difference 8 months has made

Ex-A is doing SO well in his recovery. Eight months ago, he was back in rehab for the second time in a month because his drinking was totally out of control, as was his life. He now has a new job, is going to AA meetings several times a week and looks better than he has in years. The best part of all of this is that my son now has a healthy and happy father to spend time with on the weekends.
Just thought I would post something positive. One day at a time, good things can happen. If you had told me back in January that I would be posting something like this today, I'm sure I would have laughed in your face.
Peace,
Gabe

That's really great to read, Gabe. I know exactly what you mean. Dino had so many ups and downs I wondered if the yo-yo effect was permanent. It's so thrilling when the sober/clean time is sustained.

I'm especially happy for your son. Here's praying it's forever.

Hugs,
Smoke

I'm happy for all three of you. It's great to see a miracle in action, and it will be such a gift for your son to have a sober dad.

And it IS wonderful to hear good news!!!
