I was a 12 steps hater my whole life. I agreed to give AA a chance in rehab. The program and, especially, the people helped me through a divorce(after being sober a year) and many other things. Today my mom was a car wreck. Overall, ok. Her arm was broke in many places. It was a long day of moving around with knee pain, her being hard headed, surgery ect… On the way home, i stopped for food and my 2 year chip fell out of my wallet. It made realize that never once thought of drinking or anxiety pills. Even with my sister saying she took some. That’s huge for me. I am grateful for my mom’s health, a good support community, AA, caring health care workers, and my sweet dog that hasn’t stopped loving on me since I got home. Stay strong, y’all!!

I’m sorry about your mom, speedy recovery. You should be proud, when I lost my mom it was a bender for me. That’s when I knew I had to start thinking of new ways.
