I got a voice mail from my ex wife saying that my sister in law passed away Friday. Talk about being hit hard.
She was the the baby of the family and may have lead the hardest life of her of her family. She was under 40.
I remember all the hear ache she caused my in laws. I remember all the heart she she caused my ex. She walked her walk and got lost in the lime light of drugs.
One of the last times I seen her she looked like a human raisin. All the life sucked out of her.
Last I had heard she found the road to recovery and was on it.
She didn't die from an over dose she died from the after effects from years of abuse.
She leaves behind both parents, a brother, two sisters an ex husband, a daughter and grand child, numerous nieces and nephews.
Years ago I was on the same path of destruction. For those who read my profile you know I have over 13 yrs of sobriety. I know at least one person is asking themselves what are you doing here. FUBAR home of the online happy hour. Well the answer is simple. Someone needs to be the designated driver.
Mary this ones for you. My next 24 hours of sobriety.
