The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
I'm forgetful and can't remember if I posted something similar or not.
I'm new to the board. I've been in Al-Anon for about 28 years. I'm a double winner as I am also in AA for 30 years (sobriety date 10/25/85). My husband got sober about 8 years after I did, and he had 20 years of sobriety when he passed away 3 years ago from liver disease.
Right now my qualifiers are my sister, my niece and nephew. And probably a lot of my friends in AA.
I'm also at that time in life when I realize that recovery is a lifetime journey. I'm always learning something new.
One of my favorite prayers is the Set Aside prayer, which I had never heard before a month or so ago. But I value that prayer.
HP, help me set aside everything I think I know about you
Welcome PatG to MIP - glad you found us and glad you introduced yourself! I am a double winner too and there are a few others. I love the Set Aside prayer, and it's new to me too! I've been in AA for 28 (29 years in October) and Al-Anon for 6+.
Please join in and share with us! I love ESH as I too am always growing and learning.
Glad you are here!
