You are still helping people in your sad times Cathy. I applaud you, you are quite a woman. Thank you for what a good example you are putting forth. I can't imagine what you are going through now but there is still a certain "bright spirit" in you that will never die. I am amazed. Linsc
Me four ladies - very well put LinSC.....Thoughts and prayers continue (((Cathy))).

Well said LinSc. Cathy you have been a bright light for me and I clearly remember your words of wisdom you graciously offered up when I first crawled here and my Ad was in active addiction. You unshakeable commitment to recovery and the 12 steps even when things are incredibly difficult are inspirational. I will keep you and your beautiful son in my daily prayers. Hugs to you.
And for me Cathy you are changed; very different for me than the woman who first made the doors of MIP...you seem the miracle and are giving back the healing and blessings you received since. Thank you so much for your ESH. ((((Aloha))))
I'm doing good as can be for such a short amount of time. Will was my life and I know he loved me and wanted me to continue on. I really don't know what to say but I know what others are going though and the loss that can come at any time. That's why I continue to tell myself I must take care of me and help those that need help getting there.
Yeah I scream and cry and ask God WHY MY SON. I wanted more time with him to make him better and happy but is was not going to happen. His depression and anxiety was to much for him and the illness took over. It wasn't about me, his father, his girlfriend or his friends. He was in pain and his mind couldn't cope with life. I know one thing...he couldn't find his HP God or whatever you want to call it so he didn't have the strength to continue now.
I am grieving and heartbroken but I know I would have never been able to get though without MIP, Al-anon and the many friends and family that are there for ME....ME Cathy!
You all are with me, understand me and have feelings for me. This little group MIP in this big world is truly blessed to have each other. I am grateful and I thank God everyday.
Remember you are not alone so keep coming back.
((( hugs )))
