Sammy............

I just wanted to tell you that i saw the cyberchip and that was the first thing today that made me smile.
I wanted to give you a heart filled THANKS. It was very nice of you.
I am struggling but im getting there.
I dont realy talk to you , but i do read what you say and i think now ill be using that e-mail of your to yell at instead of all the people in my life.(ha, ha)
But anyway i just thought that after what you wrote to me and after what you gave me that i should say thank you to you personaly.

You friend, Christina
ahhhhh - sweetie - i'm happy i could make you smile. you deserve it!

please know christina that this will pass. just don't use - no matter what!

gosh - you have no idea what hope you have given me today. you christina, the newcomer, are the most important person here.

don't forget to breathe and please write me all you care to. this detox, we will get through together and then the "real" work begins.

i read your note about telling your mom and her figuring something was up. isn't it just like us addicts to think that we are pulling something over the ones closest to us. i know it was for me...and evenutally learned the only person i was fooling was myself. when i read your message i was reminded how our secrets keep us sick. you are on your way to healing - and as crummy as you may physically feel at this time, healing is a good thing.

keep writing, my friend. i stand back in awe of the good, loving Power within you that has given you the courage to make these positive changes in your life today. wheweeeeeee - God sure is crazy about you!

hugs and much love to you -

I have no idea how you do it , but you seem to write things that make me smile!!!

My father called me tonight too! As amazed as i am, he told me to hold on tight because this was gonna be a bummpy road. But he had faith in me because he loved me and he was glad that i had fially opened up about everything.
It realy made me happy to hear that and after the tears had dryed, i started thinking how close we all may become now. I never knew how far away that i was pushing them.

Your words inspire me sammy, and i will never forget you as long as i live.!!!!
You have my word on that !!!

Your Friend (always) Christina

P.S. MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and your family this holiday!
