Small Miracles

My brother is now in detox. Thank God. And a HUGE thank you to everyone who read my post, said prayers for me and my family, left comments here, etc. Your love and support mean so much to me. And I’m so proud to be a part of such a wonderful community of people. I love you all.

We all know that this is a huge step for him, but just one step in a series of many. I cannot imagine the horror of detox. If I could step in and do it for him, I would. In a heartbeat. But this is his fight, and he will come out stronger in the end. I just hope he continues down this positive path.

The best part? Today is his birthday. OK, I realize that spending your birthday in detox is probably not what anyone would WANT to do. But how fitting it is. It’s like he’s being reborn on his birthday. Sweet!

So, it’s a good day today.  :-)
