Rest In Peace, John. I was lucky to know you so deeply
As someone who lost two parents by 60, to alcohol, I hope John’s passing can serve as a reminder to those struggling that today is a great day to get sober. There is no shame in the fact that you’re an alcoholic or any other dependency you’re facing. What you’re feeling is real, difficult to overcome, but not insurmountable.<p>There’s an AA meeting near you that’s probably happening in a few hours. And, if AA isn’t your thing, there are other alternatives as well. I hope you can find a way to make it there, and begin the journey you deserve to live a long, healthy, fulfilling life.
