High Alert~

The recent events on the forum has created much sorrow and feelings of uncertainty for many of us.  Please make sure you are talking to someone about this.  Create a journal or thread, talk with your sponsor, your therapist, hit up a meeting, just dont hold these feelings in.  This is very important.  The tragedy we are all experiencing leaves many doubts.  Our own addictions are on high alert right now.  We can never take this addiction for granted.  We are all in this together and we will all get thru this together.  Bkitty has a prayer chain that spans the globe right now.  Her husband has been kind enough to make a profile and keep us all updated on her.   While we wait on her recovery we have to take care of our own recovery also~much love to you all~sara

I am feeling so confused. These are the situations that are hard to deal with. I am worried, scared, confused, and upset.

I know you are feeling all of these emotions and it is very confusing.  It is alot to take on all at once.  I am finding some real comfort knowing what a great family bkitty has.  She has a wonderful medical team helping her also.  What is scaring you?

I also think it's great she has good support. I'm scared bc I am having a lot of things that are pretty intense going on, and, my fear heightened by this news. I'm just....at a loss....

How sad. It just goes to show we addicts must NEVER become complacent in our recovery...we need a support system, and to develop coping mechanisms for the bad times. I agree with dominosarah regarding gaining a measure of comfort from knowing bkitty has a loving supportive husband and a medical team that will do there utmost to get her strong again.
Once again the support and power of this forum amazes me and i hope we can offer bkitty, her husband and each other the comfort and peace of mind so badly needed during these times. How fragile recovery is.

Loving thoughts for bkitty and family x
