I love that my granddaughters have always known a sober grandmother. Especially when my youngest runs up and shouts "Nanny, I love you !"
Thank you Bill W.

Brushing my teeth without gagging. I’ll be grateful for that every single time.

It's amazing the different aspects of health we neglected and learn to grow with in sobriety

I love discovering the real me and feeling like I can take on anything. No more hiding in shame and anxiety, waiting for the other shoe to drop. Life is good. I don’t wanna go back.

That’s a great question Andy!
Well I can say that I love the mental clarity I have. The drive to be a better version of myself. The smile on my sons face when he told me that he can see the changes I’ve made! The best part is I didn’t say a word about the changes I was going to make, I just made them. Makes me tear up every time I think about it.

Also how much money I could save, and how much weight I have lost! Apart from the stuff id drink, id always eat so much when I was lit and really unhealthy food too.
