    AF daily, Wednesday May 5th

    It is with a heavy heart that I start this thread today. I cannot fathom what a dark place MaryAnne lived in part of the time to do this. I'm grateful I don't know that feeling, because it must be just awful, and I am incredibly sad for those with addictions and depression that feel so hopeless.

    I am wondering if anyone knows how to contact Greeneyes? I think she would want to know about this.

    Peace finally be with you my cyber friend.:h

      Hello Abbers,
      I haven't been posting regularly as there is so much going on in my life right now.

      The news about MA is truly tragic. She has been here at mwo since before I arrived. She has battled her demons for a long, long time. She is at peace.

      This is an in your face reminder of how deadly alcohol and drug addiction truly is. It brings us to the depths of despair, a dark place indeed. This is a good time to reflect on our own lives, our own battles and most of all to make a renewed pledge to our own sobriety.

      Wishing everyone comfort today and always,

      xxx Kate

          LVT, I'm so glad you mentioned the sad news about MA in the opening of todays thread. I haven't been able to get here in a couple of days and would not have otherwise seen the news. I agree with Kate - in fact just posted on the other thread that AL took another one. We are dealing with a deadly foe.

          No. I do NOT deserve a drink. Or want a drink. Or anything to do with a drink.

            You know this touched us all very deeply not just because of what a lovely sweet girl MA was but because I suspect it will have reminded us how close we too have come to this at times in our lives. As a legacy to MA I intend to be even more grateful everyday for finding sobriety and chasing away the deep dark thoughts I used to have.

              I haven't been around the boards for a while... pop in periodically. Life has been pretty good until recently. Well, my life is still good but...

              I've been feeling really f'd up with this news of MA... I also had a life-long friend pass away on the 18th of April from melanoma that metastasis to her adrenal gland and lungs... I found out about both on Facebook.

              It would be so easy to go to the jar store and pick up something to soothe the nerves... but I am not going to. It is just so hard to digest all of this bad news!

              Another thing is that with MA committing suicide has really opened my eyes that alcohol is something that can't be dabbled with for us alcoholics. Life is truly to short and you never know when that drink will finally take you.... especially if you are depressed and mixing with drugs (pills), or whatever.

              Anyway.... I am just rambling. This is truly sad.

              The last couple of weeks have really made me appreciate life. Even times when it seems crappy, nothing is worth drinking over.

              I love you all and thank you for letting me be here today. I really needed to. Just a mix of emotions goin' on with me.

              RIP MA!

                AFM, nice to see you here again. I want to repeat what you said here:

                Another thing is that with MA committing suicide has really opened my eyes that alcohol is something that can't be dabbled with for us alcoholics. Life is truly to short and you never know when that drink will finally take you....

                such a powerful and true statement.

                off to check up on chat...

                be well everyone
