One of the goals I have had most of my life was to someday be a published writer. That is still one of my goals and, perhaps, by writing for “BellaOnline”, I edge a bit closer to that reality. A few years ago, in an attempt to find spirituality, I had my aura read. There were many aspects of this reading that I will always remember but none I recall as vividly as his “sight” into my throat chakra. He told me I would write a book and that it would be enjoyable, light and of a spiritual nature (probably not a best seller!). I was elated! It was the subject matter, however, that would continue to elude me. Until now!

If anyone would have told me I would be writing about 12 Step Recovery I would never have believed it. But the reality is that I AM in a 12 Step program and I am grateful for the opportunity to share with all of you my journey from addiction to the never-ending road of recovery.

As the Editor of 12 Step Recovery, I welcome any and all questions pertaining to addiction and recovery whether it is for you or for a loved one. There are seldom any clinical answers and that is a great thing because I can feel comfortable responding to you from the depths of my heart and soul.

Because of my recovery, I have been able to resume my career of many years working with adults in technical schools. Today, I am more involved in my work than ever before as a counselor for international students. I am blessed to have a wonderful husband, two beautiful daughters and my most prized treasures, three grandchildren. Life is good!
