congrats on 26 yrs. i had a talk with a lady that came in to do a ua the other day.she was clean but very upset that people suspected her of using. i told her that the trust is something built over time. i myself have family that asks me from time to time if i'm still sober. but due to my past i'm probably allways gonna be under suspicion. but when it comes down to it i gave them the reason to be suspicious. and it feels good to be able to make that ammends to them every time they ask that yes i'm still sober and that old billy hasn't returned.

thanks for sharing

I worked at the local Detox for the County for a While.......We had a lady that would come in regularly 5'4" 100lbs that would blow an average of .67.......for a yr.........We heard she finally died..........Now Seattle Detox broke our record by picking up one frozen drunk in the middle of the winter that had a .90.......The Hospital said that was the only thing that kept him from freezing to death.........He is now alive and sober last I heard he has many yrs of recovery and is working at their detox............GW.


I love happy endings. I hate to say that I'm glad that I'm not the only .29er, (One said .31, but don't see how) I felt like such a loser and how could I be in that drunken state and walking?  Those memories keep me sober.
Thanks for sharing.

26 years!!  Now that is awesome. 
Quite a scary story but good to keep the memory for the reminder, eh??  Thanks for sharing and I am glad you no longer pee green.  Once when I had gotten hurt while drinking, I went to the ER and my blood alcohol was up to .29 and I had the Dr. tell me I should be dead, or in a coma...  I flipped him off.  Nice girl.  I am happy I am not that girl anymore.
