October 2 – Supporting a Friend

Today was like a walk down memory lane. I went to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting with Liz. It was her first. As sad as it is, it helps to realize that you’re not by yourself in things like this. There are plenty of people out there with addictions and it gives you some freedom to know that. It also gives you perspective about addiction itself and how it affects everything the addict touches.

After the way Robin has been here for me, I’m glad to be able to support someone else. It's a welcome distraction from everything that’s going on in my life. I just hope this will help Liz understand Lucky better and how his addiction affects their lives.
