This is my photo from when I went to jail in 2007, on a breach of probation charge. I had just been sleeping outside for a number of days and hadn't showered in about 2 weeks. I had been up for about 5 days on a cocaine run and drinking binge which led be into temporary phycosis. The joys of addiciton.
This is me alot happier in christmas of 2009/2010 at my staff party. The joys of recovery!!
Your story has touched my heart in a place that has been unreachable for a very very long time.
ReplyDeleteAs the child of an addict, the child that received the brunt of the abuse, I now have a greater understanding and respect for her journey to recovery. I could never comprehend her struggle and after 17 years of sobriety I am proud to support her.
Thank you.
