24Hour Recovery Connections Part 354
What you wrote really nailed it for me Juliet. "You can drink just for a few days, take a break from sobriety, loose yourself in the booze. Then come back here." This is exactly what my AV says, and it lures me away from here, from SR. I'm then like the deer that gets picked off by the lion cause it's isolated from the herd. So, it's great that you voiced it on here. Also very useful for me.
Keep warm, take care and hope the snow eases off up there

Hello,
Not good here. My mother has been off her cancer meds for a month now. She had hip surgery yesterday, and although it went ok, the cancer had relapsed, and she has to recover. Spleen is very enlarged, and it hit me this morning that this is a very dire situation. She doesn’t look good. Surgeon was very concerned. I was in such a daze yesterday, but now I realize what we are facing. I hope that there is hope for her. Very tough morning.
24 please

Thank you, jsm. Trying not to think the worst but also knowing that this is going to be a hard road ahead. Gathering the strength I need to help communicate with the doctors and get a plan together. We need to hold on and take it a minute at a time for a while. She may do ok, no matter how serious this is. Keeping her encouraged and being proactive is all we need to do today.
Good morning all. Please count me in for another 24 hours. All plans cancelled cos of really heavy snow. Its a dangerous time for me, my AV is talking. One of the things it says - and has always said is 'just for a few days'. You can drink just for a few days, take a break from sobriety, loose yourself in the booze. Then come back here.
I am glad I wrote that down, what a load of rubbish, a few days would turn into weeks or months, and by 7pm today I would feel lousy, tired, wanting to go to bed but knowing if I did I would be wide awake by 2am.
One piece of advice I have read on here a lot is; play the tape forward. Play it all the way. That helps me.
Thanks to everyone for being here. I am gonna bake today, I will imagine I am baking for you guys. Take care, have a good day.

I could drink for a few days too......but I have no illusions......I would NEVER come back. That could well be the end of me......this dangerous game we play is a little like Russian roulette.....and eventually there are no more choices.
I know that's a bit serious.....so back to baking......muffins? I think I can smell muffins.....so much love honey. Glad you called out your AV. ♥
