This brought tears to my eyes, Robbie. Celebrating your 530 days. Celebrating all you're doing to break a cycle and change your story. Celebrating the gift you're giving your own children and every single person in your life (you included). Thank you. Rooting for you.

Robbie, I have loved, treasured, and admired you for more than four decades. Thank you for writing this story. You are a true fighter. You work every day to conquer these demons of your past and you do it so well. You are a shining star, my friend. Always in my heart.

Congrats on finding a new pair of glasses. Sobriety is a daily project for me, happy to report clean & sober for 4963 days. I like the community that I find in AA, the structure that my life needs comes from considering others who i might help, working with the people who have extended a helping hand and a daily reminder which often comes from a meeting. You’re journey is amazing, your father taught you more than you know and yes more WILL be revealed. Be kind to yourself, learn to love yourself, find peace in meditation and prayer. One day at a time Robbie, you’re life is beautiful.
