One year ago today, I got very sick and was hospitalized for over a week (acute pancreatitis). In the process, the doctors found out I had kidney disease too. My life as I knew it, changed forever. I feel like a different person today, both good and bad, but a better person in the end. Things that I thought were important then, don't mean a damn thing to me now. It sucks that life priorities get straightened out only after tragic events.
I'm 37 years old, been a heavy drinker for at least 10 years and a social drinker since high school. I really loved my booze. I never thought for a second, I'd ever be the one quitting alcohol. I knew I was a drunk, but a functional drunk. I thought quitting booze was always for someone else, never me ... not in a 100 years. I never imagined I could do it ... I couldn't go without a drink for 3 or 4 days let alone forever. Well, a year later ... not a single drop of liquor ... nothing short of a miracle for me.
I don't know why I write this, I just wanted to share this special October 12, 2011 with some of you at Covers.com. Good luck with your bets!!! And don't forget to smile and live life to your fullest!!!
