Minor Update. Perhaps I should have my own thread
 I have started to walk without the use of the cane. Mind you, not any long distance, but sometimes up to a half mile. Now, I know that does not sound like a lot, but it is! What I do is when I am on my normal day to day activity I just hold the cane to my side horizontally and walk "normal". I do this daily now and I am getting more confident. See, its true, if ya have a problem with the drink, just stop and things do get better, I am proof of that. BUT, I tell ya, I have been through some pretty tough stuff in my short life and abstaining from alcohol has been the hardest thing I have ever encountered. It does not have to be the end. |

Well, I did it. I am one year sober today, going to hit a Celebrate Recovery meeting and have dinner at the local sushi joint...sans le saki.
 Its been hard, real hard, but I can say that it really does get easier and its the best thing I have done in 39 years....if I can do it, you can do it. I am walking without the cane almost everywhere, still have trouble with anything over a couple miles and stairs are still a little sketchy, but it sure beats the wheelchair.....

426 days sober.
Feel great. Back to FT work. Get my license back in 3 weeks. Life is good. Moral of the story? Stay off the booze if you cant handle it and life will improve. |
