Struggling with grief today as I had to say goodbye to my sweet Boston Frankie yesterday. She was so ill and ready to go home. The thought of a drink passed through this alcoholic brain bur it was only a thought and after 5 yrs in this program, and working my program daily I don't have to drink over anything today. Grateful to be sober so I can feel, deal and heal today instead.

I am glad, I lost my 14 year old Scottish Terrier Ivan the Terrible a year ago. It was a shock he was full of cancer. Was put to sleep same day when he was taken to the vets. He was my favorite dog of all time and have been sober for many moons. But dam at times it still hurts and surely if the booze would help and know it is death for me I would of drank. But sobriety is where it is at for this drunk) zit will take time but he is not as far away I suspect as you may think)
Losing a pet in sobriety is not easy. 16 years ago we had to say goodbye to one of our cats. We still miss him
