90 days and celebrating my reason!

Today I am 90 days sober. Not a sip of alcohol. My energy level is higher. I am much happier and optimistic! I am blessed/cursed in that drinking again is not even an option for me. I have peripheral alcoholic neuropathy. This means that my nerves in my legs are poisoned and will continue to die with alcohol consumption. The result would be a wheelchair and possible amputation. I imagine facing someone enduring these conditions daily. Telling them I liked being drunk so much that I voluntarily gave up my ability to walk. This would classify me as the most selfish idiot alive. One beer also creates unbearable pain in my legs. I guess I am lucky to have this condition as it makes quitting non-negotiable for me. Thanks for reading, everyone have a wonderful day and keep up the good fight! Much love, Melisa
