So very sad tonight.

Just learned of another death from alcoholism - another family suffering from shock and grief.

Let's all tighten our bonds to one another - in love, compassion, understanding and enending support.

Sorry to be a downer but just been hearing about too many of these lately and fear for my friends and myself. Guess I have to just dig deep and be grateful for each day as I should.
Gratitude us so very essential.

Hola,
Our Port today was Cozumel. Boy, in our eyes this tiny little island is over developed. We have been coming here (land & cruise vacations) since Mark was 6. Thankfully we spent a few hours on "the other side" of the Island.
Anyway, it's time to check in for my next 24.

I'm so sorry to hear your very sad news Leigh. Sickens me to the core each time someone is lost to this awful disease.
Love to you sweetheart ❤❤❤

Vin I'm the same.
We've got this thing for life I guess. No magic cure just continued work and yes gratitude like you said.
I don't think your being a "downer" at all. It's important I think that we have a healthy respect for the power of addiction. Our friends in AA say cunning, baffling, powerful and I also add patient.
Take care my friend

So very grateful and proud to be part of this wonderful group.
Absolutely blessed to be one of the lucky ones who stumbled across SR in a moment of utter desperation.
Thank you all for being here.
Lots of love and 24 more please ❤❤❤
