Celebrating sobriety…with my dad

Around the time I started drinking, my dad stopped drinking. I’ve been an alcoholic for 27 years, and he’s been sober for 27 years. Since I’ve been sober, we’ve gotten really close. We talk in depth about our struggles, and sometimes we go to meetings together. He splits his year between here and California. When he’s in CA, I talk to him every weekend.

I don’t see my mom as much as I’d like to, but it takes two people to make a relationship work.
