Pam,

I can understand the dilemma his job does pose; I had forgotten abut that when posting; Hopefully there is a place he can get use to. My daughter was fortunate, she hooked up early with a place for a long time she even began chairing some of the meetings. She also deals with ManicDepressive/Bi=polar issues Each day can be a struggle for her; either up up or wayyyy down. It's so hard for to be really happy for very long; but did become certified to work with those dealing with addiction.

She was asked my a mother to speak at her 22 year old son's wake on Tuesday. My daughter is very strict with parents enabling their adult children; so it is difficult for some to abide with her recommendations and she understands;

I hope your headaches have tone downed a bit; especially if they were steroid driven. You had so many in a short period.

I looked up your town a month or so ago; there are AA's in your area. The only reason my daughter goes to AA is the drug meetings can not compare with AA. She has been clean many years; she does not know how she would have manage without a sponsor and AA. As I mentioned; it is a lifetime addiction behavior so a lifetime keeping the old behavior/reminder under control is also needed.
