It was my day 4 today and what a day. My mam called me at 10 in the morning, she'd had to call a ambulance for my dad, i drove straight there, my dad had a seizure, i was so scared, i thought i was going to lose him, we spent day in hospital, luckily he is ok now.
Thank God i was sober and able to be there, mentally and physically !! another reminder that I'm going down the right path now and must not waste another second

That's wonderful you could be there fully present. Your mom and dad can count on you. I'm glad he's doing better Tink.

What a blessing, Tinker. I'm sorry your family had that awful scare, but happy to know he's doing ok.

I drink at home in the evenings and that is my biggest fear: Someone needs me in an emergency but I am too inebriated to help.
