I'm not sure if you remember me, but I attended SOP with you about a year ago. I was a bartender, got my first DUI, and was ordered to attend your group sessions. I got sober and joined Alcoholics Anonymous on July 10, 2016 and have just celebrated my first year of continuous sobriety. I have 1.5 months left of probation, but by the grace of God, I am already free.

I appreciate your facilitation of that group, and I especially appreciate all the emotional support you gave me during that difficult time in my life. Although you did not have a problem with alcohol/drugs, your compassion really touched my life. You spoke to me a bit about going back to school and starting a career. I never made it into a school; however, I did get a job in sales.

The job was great and I lasted 6 months before it was clear that sales just isn't for me. Since then, I've decided that you were right- I must finish my degree and see what else lies ahead for me.

Thanks,, K
