some have read about me crying about my life problmens-well here i go heading to the usa monday----to the spot where the only friends i know are-------whats instore for me???who knows----guess i will have to toughen up and take it as it goes--------and hope for the best------my many thanks to the friends here who stuck by my side--------

steve, one thing i have noticed about us survivors is we are a resilient, incorrigible bunch who have learned to take life on life's terms, and bounce back in the worst of times. you're going to a great city with a good recovery community. you'll do fine. keep us posted, ok?

warm regards,

ron

thanks so much --ron --your post brought tears to my eyes and a sense of relief-----steven

Steve,

I wish you nothing but the best of luck. Ron is right. Denver is a great community to be going to and has a great network of survivors there. I passed through Denver on my way to Alta, Utah last fall. At the airport, waiting for me, was a member from here. We had a great time!

Its tough being alone. I get that part too well. I live in a small community north east of Toronto. But every week I get in my car and go to group T in Toronto. Just to feel more connected in real life. It helps so much.

Now, here you are, headed back to your homeland, ready to start a new chapter. Good for you!

And if you find yourself starving for more foreign content in your life, I can put you in touch with a Canadian who lives not too far from Denver. He's a Gold Medal Man in my books!

Stay in touch. I hope your journey is safe, and uneventful.

Jim

Steven,

We've talked a little and I'm glad you have found a direction that will support you and your recovery in returning the US. I'm hoping that we'll hear from you letting us know that you landed safely and that the universe offers you all the help you need for this transition. Bon voyage.

well i made it here==melting down quick=========thinking of hospital==to get stablized=========i am terrifed

steven, you go ahead and take whatever measures you need for your own safety and health state, and use the resources available at your disposal. you took a huge risk in making this leap from ground to groundless ground and it will take you a while to get situated in a place where you have more options and greater control over your life. one door closes another opens, and while it may not be the door we would have chosen for ourselves, perhaps something beyond us is guiding us towards our own greater good, even if it does not feel comfortable for the time being. trust and don't lose faith or hope that things will work out in your favor, and know that you will not be deserted to aloof chance.

stay in touch and keep us posted bro.

warm regards,

ron

Keep us informed how you are doing, Steven. Okay, buddy?

Hope all goes well for you.
