I was absolutely blown away by your story, your challenges, your resolve, faith and strength to fight your way back to your wife and family, but most of all, to your self.
I always heard "alcohol was a disease," but never really understood the physical, psychological, and mental toll it takes on a person. Your story, from your perspective, helps me to understand. Thank you.

Dave, I am humbled by your regard for me. Of course, you can use my name. You should know that this experience between us was mutually transformative. That day, I learned about second chances and that everyone has a story and trauma, which affects us all differently. Until then, I hadn't given that much thought, as I was your stereotypical hard-ass who only saw the job, not the people. So you see, I too am indebted to you.
Thank you for thinking of me after all this time. I am so pleased that you are 18 years sober, and I am proud to have had a small part in that.
However, you are the real hero here. Overcoming addiction is no small feat, and it was you who did the hard work and made the sacrifice.
Thank you, Dave, for thinking of me and for sending this.
Best, Damian

An absolutely amazing story that is so beautifully written. Congratulations on your sobriety, your strength, and your happiness. Thank you for sharing, and may it bring it hope to many who so desperately need it.

Thank you for sharing your story. I lost my husband a little over a year ago to alcohol. He tried on several occasions to quit drinking, but the desire was always stronger. Reading your story helps give it some perspective. I cried reading your beautiful account in Durango, and I cried again, reading the beautiful ending to your story with the artwork from your young son and your words of wisdom. Blessings on you and your wife, and thank you again for sharing your journey—know that it’s helped someone else understand.

This is a truly captivating story with a wonderfully uplifting conclusion. Thank you for sharing such a personal and inspirational story.
Like your wife, I’ve endured a similar journey for too long, facing daily broken promises and years that seem to echo each other. When the moment feels right, I plan to share this with my husband, hoping it will strike a chord with him just as it did with me.
Wishing you all the best for the remainder of your life’s journey.
