I would like to thank AA and my sponsor for helping me realize that I am not a bad person trying to be good but a sick person trying to be well..  I hit 30 days on Sunday and no that I could not have done it alone..  I was blessed enough that I didn't have to attend a rehab and I did it with some help from my friends.  Thanks to everyone that believe and doubted me.. You both gave me strength..

I would also like to add that I alone made the choice to drink and I alone had to make the choice to stop.. I know that after surgery we switch cross addictions and this is one that I fell back into.. Please just keep me in your prayers..

Always thank others for their support, but only thank yourself for staying sober and maintaining your sobriety.

Congratulations and here's to your continued success in all aspects of your life.

congrats!  that is an amazing accomplishment.  BUt I do want to tell you from a medical perspective, getting help is not necessarily a bad thing.  People that abuse alcohol and then stop can go into serious alcohol withdrawls, and can have a seizure.  THey hear things, have tactile disturbances, are very sweaty, anxious, have tremors and can have a change in neuro status.  At that time its very imp. to get to a hospital, its serious stuff!  but I again want to say congrats on your success.  sorry if I rambled about things that you may already have known.  you deserve a

Congratulations Ramon on your sobriety!  My best friend, who had gastric bypass in 2001,  a few months ago started going to AA herself and her life is so much better for it.  Its a slippery slope that only sends us into a very bad place. I'm glad you caught yourself from sliding down too far and you were able to pull yourself back up!
