 | Biography/Personal Statement My story is not so different from man other peoples in recovery yet it is MY STORY. I was born in Philly and spent my childhood in Tabernacle, New Jersey and as I remember it was a normal, basic upbringing. I had all the usual hobbies, sports, music and hanging out with friends. I started experimenting with drugs in my early teens and found it to be a slow but steadily progressive path to the destruction of my life. It has been a struggle for the past few years even though I knew I had this terrible affliction of addiction. In the process of trying to conquer this disease there have been good times and bad, but I had not been able to stay stopped until my children were born. Marissa is 6 yrs old and Kayla, 1yr old, my love for them is indescribable. This time I have found a reliance on Gods love for me and have turned to Him. I practice a faith today and am managing to stay stopped one day at a time. By giving sobriety and myself a chance I know I can be the father I am supposed to be and the father that my girls deserve to have. I am happy to be at Tabor surrounded by guys who want the same kind of things and am hopeful of building that foundation for a clean and sober life. |
