It will be 8 years this December that my mother passed away. I found some handwritten notes in her belongings when she passed and I saved it. I forgot about it until now. Now that I am in ACA I thought it was appropriate and it might help some one else.
The Power of Mothering.
-Taking personal responsibility in relearning our own potential for happiness
-Need vs Needy
-Expect others to fix us
-getting help from others
-receiving help from others
-others can not help us unless we decide to learn to become a loving adult and help ourselves
-no matter how much others may love us and help us they cannot heal our old wounds.
- These wounds can only be healed by learning to love ourselves and moving through our fear grief and pain
Daughter,
Giving unconditional love and understanding trust she will find her own answers.

I came to ITR looking for ACA and CODA Meetings. The first meetings I went to was the sunday ACA CODA & AL-NON in a row(3/7/2021). After 5 months I am finally coming out of the denial of needing AA as well. I finally listened to God and took that first step.
My last drink was on 8/3/2021. I am looking for an MA sponsor.--------------------------------The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.
