Thanks, Phil, my friend. You too are always in my prayers.... May you stop shivering and shaking, but never stop rockin' ~ n ~ rollin'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I got 2 things from your share; 1) any one of us can fall at any time

but we can always pick ourselves back up and your friend was trying to do just that by extending his hand to you.....

and 2) it's always a great reminder when someone drinks again, that I desire to stay sober one more day

Take care of you.........Love and lots of hugs.....

Hey Phil, I just said a prayer for you my friend.We've just got to keep on keeping on.

I was suppose to go to the Dr. in the city today, but just as I was getting ready to leave, my Mom fell, so we spent hours in the ER again. She has a nasty bump on the back of her head...so I'm on "the wake her up ever two hour watch" tonight.The CT didn't show anything serious, but you never know. Soooo, add us to the prayer list too.

Thank God I'm living life on lifes terms one day at a time and doing it all sober.

(((Hugs)))

Phil, I've been wondering what's going on with you. Sorry to hear it is a relapse of the cancer and that you are undergoing more chemo. It seems that you are always trying to help everybody and that it is harder for you to share your real self with us. I'm glad you did here though. I'll put you on my prayer list today in a special way. Since my appendectomy I've been doing a ministry at that hospital, which includes doing an hour of intercessory prayer for the sick. I'll be there starting at noon today, my time. See? you even got up out of the bed and dragged yourself to a meeting to help that guy, and he did get to a meeting.

God bless you, 'easy does it',

Single Father...one boy on his own..in a big city..doing great and 15 months sober..at 23..

Two girls at home...one is 22..and working 2 jobs..the other is 16..and has one more year before college..
