Say a prayer
Tomorrow I will be meeting with a mother who recently lost her 35 year old son to alcoholism.

Please say a prayer that God will speak through me and bring a measure of healing to someone who through no fault of their own is a victim of this horrible disease

I don't pray, but I firmly believe you will find the right words to help this grieving mother.

MIRecovery..I have no doubt that you will find the words or silence and it will help her....
...I also believe that the same will be reciprocated to you...
It is a funny thing, reaching out to help others, helps us!

Thank you for the prayers. I think it went well. Not sure if I did any good but I don't think I did any harm

Sometimes we plant seeds that even we don't know we've sown.

I'm sure you made a difference, MIR.

You gave of yourself even in your own grief. How wonderful the world would be if more people tried that.
