02 What happened

May 11th 2008 called my mom & told her I was ready. I went cold turkey & never looked back. My detox was one of the hardest experiences I had ever gone through. I was the last of 6 siblings to get sober & we were all really bad junkies.

03 What it is like now

Now......life is so fkn GRAND. I work for a cooperate school. Bought myself a fat 5 bedroom house, 2 brand new cars & have been in a 13 year relationship that worked itself through my addiction & sobriety. I e traveled & have crossed many things off my bucket list. I can go on & on on how great my life is but, it was worked for. I have not looked back since..
