Staying strong for Kim

Well my wife has been in and out of hospital over the last month. That used to be one of my triggers or an exscuse to use. Bt i have not But thought about it.She is on acouple of different antibiotics amongst other things. I miss her lots. Before i had all that clean time iwould definatly have folded but not now or Kim would kill me LOL. She is getting plenty of rest o thats good. I was telling Kim when i went to the hospital that i had been on MH as she knows ppl here will keep me right were drugs are concerned she knows before i would use it as an exscuse but now knows i will come on here and talk. I hate when Kim gets ill . I dont know if all you guys and gals know this . My wife Kim has a terminal illness so i panick when Kim goes into hospital. But i have a very close friend that helps me and says all the right things. I have lots of friends but im close to this perticulas friend. Well anyway i dont know when Kim will be home. But i feel most vunrable. The front door went at tea time and it was some one who only wants my money ( i did not answer the door ) I only want Kim home and i made too many promises to let any one down now. I know why they want me to fall as iwas giving them £300 to £400 a week.So they are not friends they want to ruin my marrage coz with out Kim i would fall at the first fence. Ill give them one thing they dont leave me alone. If i bump into any of them they always say that the gear is good. But i know they are trying to plant the seed and let it grow in my head. Anyway i wish Kim a speedy recovery. I will also tell Kim that all our friends at MH are rooting for her. Thank you all for lisening,,,,,,James

james my friend,
you are a strong man , you have overcome so much in the last year. you have found the strength to fight your demons, to deal with the past, to hold your family together, to be a support for kim and to be the husband and father she loves,you have stepped up to the plate my brother and you are winning this battle, the LORD is walking with you. you again have found the faith and hope to go on despite how bad it seemed at times.i am so happy for you and very proud to call you friend.
kim can rest because she knows that you are in a good place now. your are in recovery 214 days.wow.awesome.a big hug. please james continue to hold your sobriety scared, as a trophy, hold your head high,be proud of who you are and what you have accomplished. you did and are doing a wonderful thing for yourself and your family.
when they come to your door, you continue to rebuke them and they will flee. they are not your friends , they are the enemy and yes they do want you to fall. as you continue to plant good seeds in your heart,mind,soul,body and in your family you will reap a good harvest of love, joy,hope and strength. keep the faith,hope,believe,trust and pray.
you,kim and your family are in my thoughts and prayers,
your sister

Letakos i came of the drugs for me first. Coz if i did not i would not have a family. You are correct again it was me who decided to go to rehab to get my own life back on track. Then the rest came together. Its harder now that the scum stay beside me a lot harder. But  i have to much to live for now. Caz is due in 20 weeks that alone gives me the determination to stay away from drugs. I will never go back as i would be letting myself down and my family. one year ago i would most likly have used. But iv come to far to go back. I dont ignore them but i wont asociate with them.And i wont let myself down neither my family Hugs for my sister. Your brother James

It is a very disquieting feeling when one we love is in the hospital and with Kim it is especially difficult as she is fighting this disease of the lungs.. she really is in the best place james and you have given her the peace she needs to fight by being clean and staying that way. my sister can rest and spend her energy on herself and getting well instead of worrying for you. what a wonderful gift and what a wonderful man you are.. You have come so far ! I hope somewhere inside you are staying clean for yourself james for you too are worth the effort. It must be such a relief that she is not shouldering the burden alone. Now you are there for your children for her.. when we are high we are there for none but the drugs.. You are right the guy was not there for you but your money You must have put a bit of a dent in his lifestyle with keeping your money ! They can try to plant the seed but it will only grow in contaminated soil for this seed is the seed of death.. I'm so very Proud of you and so very Proud of the way you are dealing with this. You do not walk alone my brother for we travel the same path side by side.. my prayers have gone up and will continue till my sister is home. anytime james you need to talk I'm right here as we all are You do not need to face this alone. much love letakos
