Pops,

I am so proud of you....I really am.

You had so much to deal with and so many mountains in your way, but you climbed them all, one by one and mapped out a wonderful new sober life for yourself.

A new house, a new job, a new homelife and a new direction towards getting your degree...

You have travelled a million miles Pops and I am so glad you have reached this destination.

You are some man for one man and I love you to bits.xxxxx

FECKIN WELL DONE!

Congratulations to you Popeye,

I have read your posts since I started with MWO and I'm so thrilled that you have one year of being AF behind you. You are another shining example of how it can be done!!!
