Most of us never think we will see this day. I want to offer hope. Have you seen The Anonymous People film? I would highly recommend it. I also have found support and education through Families Anonymous.

It hurt too much and sobriety for my child just seemed impossible. I was sure we were going to lose our bright, beautiful boy to addiction. Days were spent waiting for the call that he was dead. I felt that Hope was the thing that was killing me (to paraphrase Denis Leary), yet I couldn't totally turn my back on it. <br />Yesterday he celebrated 90 days clean. I don't know what's coming in the future for us all, but today is sweet. He's trying hard to get his life back. I'm glad you went back for the Hope stone. I may get one myself. Never give up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214164572251206738.post-54602892391935547352013-07-27T23:15:01.960-04:002013-07-27T23:15:01.960-04:00I love that your son's coin includes Shakespea...I love that your son's coin includes Shakespeare: To thine own self be true. During my chemo year I bought a necklace with a circle stamped with that quotation. I knew I would recover, and I also knew chemo would change me in ways temporary and permanent. I still wear that necklace a lot, along with another by the same artist that says, We know what we are, but not what we may become. Cheers to you and your family, working your program, living your lives. Peace. PrJooliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06849166852403625550noreply@blogger.com
