Rich, Happy 2009, my friend. This thread is taking root and it will provide comfort and inspiration to those of us who have to deal, in one way or another, with alcoholism. Keep up the good work. I'll try to support this thread more regularly. Looking forward to seeing you in the spring. :HappyWave:
Katie, Thanks for the kind words. I'm honored that any of my thoughts gave you an understanding of your Dad's affliction. So much of recovering from alcohol is learning to slow down and begin to allow others into our lives without the need to control. As an Adult Child of Alcoholics (ACOA), you would have a lot to offer. I'm glad that you posted and made yourself known.
We are developing a small but steady sober community here and all who have been afflicted by alcohol, either directly or through relationships, are welcome.:)
