Thanks for bumping this, venuscat. (How do you do that from a closed/previous version of a thread?)

Lunch yesterday was uneventful. We were all on eggshells but acted as if it was a normal Sunday lunch. Our friend looked very thin and tired but she was as warm as ever. I felt she was determined not to talk about her illness. We kept the banter fairly cheerful. In my heart I felt sad and thought it may be the last time I see her outside of a hospital. I wondered what else can I do to help.

Another 24 hours of serenity, patience and sobriety pls. Its 8:39am here !

((((Dear Kaneda)))).

Sending love.

Welcome back, Jan; stay close.

Yay, milestoners!!

Thinking about Dad and Grandpa today- both were vets. Dad never liked to talk much about his service because of those who didn't come back...

(On a happier note- younger daughter got back safely from the mega-gigantic hip-hop festival. Older daughter was checking in on her via 'find my friends' app. Sheesh- ya never stop worrying)

24 more hours please at 9:51 in the driftless zone.

Enjoy that special morning, Purplrks!!!!!!!

Fantastic, Martina!!!! :bbj:

It's going to get easier, Neo, I promise. Things got easier for me when I began to recognize each sober moment as the great blessing it truly was - no way did I wantto give that up. Try to recognize something good in each moment - it becomes so therapeutic.

It's been awhile since I checked in. I slipped and am now on Day 2, looking for 24 hours of sobriety, please.

He made it home in one piece, many of his buddies did not make it home at all. Let's remember them today.

It's 6:44 AM and I'm in for another sober 24.

Amen.
