It is difficult to explain in a short letter how much my life has changed since attending the T.E.A.C.H. program and of course Sober Living by the Sea. Like a lot of us my rehab experience started out as a sentence for another probation violation.
I guess I was captured by the fellowship when I look back on it. I was totally unwilling when I first got there.
What started as an intervention between my sister and my lawyer has turned out to be nothing less than an act of Providence.
My educational experience was actually more of the vocational variety put together very well through the T.E.A.C.H. staff. I was completely computer illiterate upon arriving at Sunrise Recovery Ranch on May 17th, 2004.
This has remained my sobriety date. I ended up receiving long term care at Sober Living by the Sea until Dec 18, 2004 and started my new job on Dec. 20, 2004 (the same place I'm employed today).
The photoshop program and basic computer literacy were a requirement of my current job that learned in the TEACH Program at Saddleback College.
I am very grateful today for the experience that changed my whole life!
Sincerely,
Saul P.
