Hi Jiane....I understand the dissappointed family members. Lots of mine hated it
when I sobered up. LOL They just thought they wanted me to stop drinking. Now I
don't take any crap off them, and as you said, I am no longer a door mat and
they are having to take care of themselves. Yeah ME!

All my best,
Leah
