Things at office went great. I got a good deal, and fresh lease of life at work.I am so grateful for having got this opportunity. My problems at work was recognised by management, at the same time I realised that my sickness is having affect on my beaviour with my line manager also. Having recognised that I am going to doubly work at my sobriety.
My dad saw the doc after the prescribed rest, and now he is able to walk with support- doc says he will be fit as a fiddle in another month or so. My dad's keeping sobre, and he actually confessed to me that he got scared stiff after the fall that he 'may get crippled'...I saw in my dad's eyes, a real gratitude for being ok. I am secretly hoping that it turns to be his rock bottom...
For the first time in last 7 years I got a chance to interact, chat with dad,and also to re-bond with my family in moments of crisis.We had some coverstaions which touched me.I feel so blessed!
Thank you higher power for looking over me and though I feel I ain't trying very hard to work the steps at the moment, but u seem to understand my faults and give me another chance, bless me, and help me keep sobre each day!
Thank you all for helping me do this journey.... I hope Tugg gets notice of my post, n comes back!!!

Recovery love to you & your family, Nisha. You might not recognise it but it sounds like you are working your program to the best of your current ability & making it count in your everyday life. That's an acheivement in itself. Everything that you come here & read you'll be soaking up. You're exercising what you're gaining & then coming back to share. I'm glad you're seeing such a difference in your life. 7yrs is a long time. In fact that's how many years I felt I'd lost to alcohol before I realised it was time to change. It seems like you're doing really well & I really hope the best for your Dad too. Your getting well may be having a wonderful knock on effect tho I know that essentially you're doing this for yourself. Good luck & God bless you, Nisha. Keep on coming back & sharing the joys & the trials with us. Yours in fellowship, Danielle x
