Hi All
This past 3 weeks has been a bit hectic. My mom passed away on Christmas
day. The next day our one dog also went home. The next day, Clive, the
founder member of our 'Lamplight group' here in Humansdorp passed away. He
had 18 good years sober and was the most humble and down-to-earth person I
have ever met. I Thank God and AA that I did not need a drink during that
period. It has been one of the hardest and saddest periods but yet, just for
today, I am still sober. Typically it would have been one drunken stupor.
Thank you for being here for me.
Kind regards
Mias
15 years clean and sober and enjoying every second of it allthought some
parts break my speed a bit!

Mias:

You have my deepest sympathy for your stunning losses.

At the same time I must compliment you on the depth of your recovery program
that kept you sober through it all.

take gentle care,
