Love can beat anything

Hi All…

First off, I’m the man in verygreatful’s life.
I just wanted to drop by and let you all know that there is always a light at the end of a tunnel.
I’m VERY proud of my woman, she has done fantastic!

Yes, I was taken back as I found out how bad things had become, but guess what,
I’m here for her; I have been and always will be there, thick and thin.

Any word of advice I can give only comes from my heart.
Let your loved one know what is going on, become a team and fight the fight TOGETHER.
You may be surprised at the support you get a different point of view but share the same desire to get better.
If someone really loves you, they will do anything to help, take my word for it.

Love can beat anything. And it has….

Ahhhhh, no need for a sorry.

I did everything but needles.
Smoke it, take it, drink it or snort it, been there done that.
Methalude (a local thing) was some bad stuff.
But my main problem was Coke; it seemed it was always snowing around and inside my house LOL
That was the only thing I really had a problem stopping.

Life is a good thing when you let yourself feel it…

Hi there,

Thank you for being a good friend to her!

She is being strong but she is in pain.
Having the surgery today was not an easy thing.

I managed to get her to eat a little soup and she is now sleeping, I keep checking in on her and she looks peaceful. What a trouper!

…… "Other side of addiction"?  
Well, to be honest, I have been on each side, over 20 years clean, no drugs, no alcohol.
Life is good..
