Life is Great

Life has been great ever since I completed treatment. After a couple of relapses I have finally put together a year of consecutive sobriety!

Recovery

Avatar Posted by Barbara Fox at Sep 11, 2009 10:59 AM
  Previous to a relapse in 2000 I had experienced 18 years of sobriety. I was devastated and my family was at a loss and completely bewildered. I tried on my own to recover for a couple of heartbreaking years. I was admitted to Sober Living a broken woman and returned healthy and relatively peaceful. I did relapse once but immediately got back on track and am just shy of 4 years of continuous sobriety. My life is productive, serene and whole. I am active in AA and the joy of my life besides my family(especially my granddaughters) are the 8 ladies I have the privilege to sponsor. Thank you SLBTS
       

Unbelievable ride

It's been an unbelievable ride filled with joy laughter and also some really tough tears. When I got there in 2005 I was ready to kill myself. I couldn't stop. I am so glad to have my life back thanks to my great counselor Nate and the entire team!

I miss you guys

Hi everyone! Happy Thanksgiving! I've been sober four and a half years! Still leading at Celebrate Reclvery in Columbus OH. My brother is recovering from H1N1 and double penmonia, and my mother from lyeringitis. Other than that, Life is good, and God is good! Still singing in Choir and the CR Worship Team, in Ohio. I miss you all, and wish I could visit. But with economy as it is, I'll have to wait on that. Love to everyone! Have a Happy Holiday! Love, Libby :-)

Hi Libby,

Wow, it was great to hear from you and hear that you are doing well. This is Jennifer. I was there at the same time as you and we went through Celebrate recovery together. Do you remember? Well I just took 4 years on Nov. 28th as well. Congrats on yours. Love to hear from you again.
Love Jenn
