Thank you for writing this, it means a lot to me. I have struggled with an addiction for most of my life, so what you wrote here was very meaningful to me. If you’d like to see my blog it’s here. Thanks again for this blog – it is really well-done.

Thank you so much for commenting. I looked at your site before I approved your response and it’s very valuable. Thanks for calling it to my attention. I’d seen the Ferguson video previously and it’s wonderful. It’s important to see people making a decision to be kind and his points about being sober are heartfelt. Thank you.
