What are my chances? Thank you to all.

[Friend999]

A few days ago I had asked for help by requesting that some of you write a letter to my friend "A" who is on oxys and is in denial and secretive.  You have responded with wonderful letters, and for that I am eternally grateful to you all.  

I have 17 letters between this sight and another site.  In addition, I had copied a post that Goingtomakeit started a couple of months ago entitled "The benefits of being clean".  Other people added to the list, so there are over 30 reasons listed.  If someone would wish me to repost that list I would be glad to do so.

So, what are my chances?  Very, very slim, I know, or, at least, so many of you have told me so.  But just maybe, maybe, one of those powerful letters, or a combination of them, will hit home.  I have to try.  Whatever the result, I truly thank you all from the bottom of my heart, and wish you all the very best in your struggles with addiction, struggles with depression, struggles with anxiety, struggles with lingering guilt, or struggles with everyday normal life.
I will continue to lurk, because I still wish to learn more.  Thank you!

I still would welcome additional letters to my friend "A" if you haven't already written. Perhaps yours would be the one to hit home about secrecy, guilt, fear, clouded thinking, or just the feeling of no hope.

My prayers are with you all.

Thank you all for your replies.

Goingto makeit: I am trying my best to be supportive and understanding with her, and in a sense, I will be trying to bring the board to her. My best to you.

SadinMichigan: Your prayers are humbly accepted.  I will post the list.

To Rose703:  I would appreciate your letter, and I will post the list of "reasons to be clean".  My original post on requesting the letter would be under my profile under posts by me.  Thank you.

I would like to read "The benefits of being clean".

I also missed your post about the letter but I will be happy to do that for you. Oxy was my DOC so maybe something I say will help.

If you can get your friend to join here, that would be so good. Sometimes as adiicts you feel hopeless and that nobody can possibly understand what is going on.
When you read so many success stories and the people here being so supportive. It gives hope.
