Congratulations! Your strength helps me with the "preparation" I want to do - the bolstering and shoring up of my sobriety- for future losses. I know my parents won't be here forever (of course not, but now that point of losing them seems much closer than ever before) and I look to folks like you for inspiration at going through all kinds of life stuff sober.

You are a wonderful contributor to SR.

MIR,
I have read your story many times. I get tremendous motivation from it. You've over come so much and yet found the strenght to remain super positive and sober. You give us all hope. Want to be just like you when I grow up!!!! Congrats my friend
