I did it 20 years ago and stayed sober for 16 years. Then my son, my only child died. Then my best friend, husband died. That darn covid! Today i am going back into a rehab! I know God wants me around. Don't know why!

Grateful? Not really sure right now.

Hi Beth. I did it 20 years ago too. It took me a few tries to get there but I've managed to stay sober this time. Whatever happened with your son must have been very difficult. It sounds like you have been struggling the past 4 years. It also sounds like you want to be sober again. I truly believe if you have the willingness, you can do it. What made the difference for me was the support. I know I couldn't have stayed sober without it. I pray that you have the desire to stay sober and good sober support

Hey Beth, what memories do you have that you are grateful for?

I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing your child is an unimaginable pain, and it’s completely okay to feel unsure about gratitude right now.

Sometimes just showing up and expressing your feelings is more than enough. Be gentle with yourself, you don’t have to have the answers today. We’re here to hold space for you.🫂
