Today would have been my husband and I’s 28th anniversary. He died in January on my 30 day sober date! He wasn’t ready to get out of the life and I was and it’s been hard because he died 2 weeks after I left him. I have survivor guilt and our sons are really struggling. I’m doing ok, but it’s been a hard year with out him. Even though things had gotten toxic!

I’m sorry for your loss Keri. Even when things are toxic, the pain of loss is still felt. Sending you a virtual hug.

Wow that’s rough. I don’t want to say the wrong thing, but I do hope it helps you in your recovery. You shouldn’t feel guilty about saving your own life. If you didn’t, your sons could have been orphans.

Very true. I think of that every day. It’s been hard on us all but they like sober awesome hone and safe mom way more than thug life junkie mom! I don’t regret much, I wouldn’t be the mom I am today if it weren’t for all the bad! My higher power had a bigger plan and I’m happy to be almost 10 months sober today! thanks for the support, it really helps!.
