I asked Tom if he would care if I shared this today. It is his last zoom AA meeting. We just celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. He is 35 years sober. If you know anything about the AA program you know that it is faith based. My husband is a man of deep faith. We are both so grateful for meetings in church basements and the helping hand of other alcoholics. I am so proud of this man. When you are open to the miracles in your life I guarantee they are there. During the pandemic his home group started meeting on Zoom. It was a great platform for them
congratulations, tom! and to you also, cathy, for your support of him. i know what it was like to be with an alcohol addiction, it wasn't easy. there's a poster i see occasionally in our subway stations of a bottle with woman carrying a child with the inscription "not everyone trapped by alcohol is an alcoholic". every time i see it, my chest hurts remembering my first husband from a long time ago. aces on the shot and bravo to you and tom.
Hats off to Tom & you too as it’s a joint thing I imagine, his strength & your faith & encouragement. No wonder you’re proud & thank you for being open about it….it helps others who might just need that little nudge to do the same.
