Sleep Sleep and bonding with son

[meshellrn]

So today is day 3 for me. I noticed that instead of drinking wine and passing out, then waking up around 2 or 3 am, i am sleeping through the night and am getting the best restful sleep ever!!! I also do not have any liver pain or gall bladder sounds in the morning. I feel refreshed and very happy!!!

Secondly, my 17 year old son and i layed in his room last night and he told me what a perfect childhood he had. We reminisded on old favorite books i used to read each night to him and his brother!!! In my usual drunken state, i would have been passed out at night and not present to hear his words. I am truely grateful for this!!!!

NO wine, better time!!

Isn't it amazing how we can enjoy the simplest of things when we're sober!

My youngest is also 17 and has been a lifesaver for me.

I'm grateful that he is forgiving and has been supporting in my AF journey. He has never thrown a guilt trip at me and when I've expressed my remorse, he's made sweet jokes and encouraged me to stay sober. I do not want to disappoint him. He is a fine young man, in spite of my shortcomings.
