scott evil, my father has been sober for 27 years now, but at one point, believe it or not, it was one week. And he kept on just doing it, one day at a time, good times and bad. I know it’s still hard for him sometimes, but supposedly it eventually stops being hard all the time! Keep it up! I know you can do it! ---

Congrats!!! And keep up the fabulous work! Remember this - the hardest part of climbing a mountain is when you are closest to the top. Take it one day at a time and the top of the mountain won’t be far away at all! ---
