        Victories all week-end folks. It has been a really bad one. I can't remember a worse weekend that I have gone through sober. I did it, but I am tired and sad. Heavy but hopeful heart for someone dear to me in the hospital.
        God must be leading me by the hand because there is no other way I could have possibly stayed sober with the cards that have been dealt right now.
        And honestly, if I were drinking I wouldn't have been able to orchestrate what I did and have the outcome that was needed.
        And then I just kept cleaning. Cooking. Calling doctors, specialists, hospitalists, family members and friends. I collapsed after a couple days of this but I didn't collapse into a bottle. I cried. A felt things that o haven't felt in a long time. I am in control of my life and my family needs me.

        Fuck you alcohol and Fuck you cancer. You are not taking any of my family down. Get to steppin.

          Nursie, you are probably feeling tired and stressed from the demands of the weekend crisis, but I'm betting a feeling of empowerment prevails over all that because of the way you navigated it without the alcohol crutch. You stood on your own again, took the reins of your life back and shined. As molly mentioned above, this is a huge contribution to your future successes. Bravo!

              Nursie, I just recently made it through the death of my dad (90 yrs) sober (you were there cheering me on). I felt very proud that I didn't rely on a crutch to deal with it..........you will be very happy with yourself for winning out over alcohol. Sorry about your friend......but admire you for your victory!

              Prawn, welcome.......many here are beating alcohol; you can too!

                      Thanks everyone. Unwasted, I didn't realize it was cancer that your Dad had. It's so hard to see your strong Daddy in a position of vulnerability. For them and for us.

                      Glad I Am doing it sober. I must be really serious about this sober thing. Lol

                        Nursie, my biological dad died of cancer (self induced from cigs and al....he was a major alkie). The dad that just died at 90 was my stepdad........who was wonderful to me (he was not an alkie!). Go figure, eh?
