for all the hard work and tirelesss effort by more than 40 guys and gals in recovery to produce the 2007 Houston Roundup - I may get more involved (again) next year

I think that "normal" people don't have a clue about what it means to be sober for our mothers. It is a huge deal, and I want to acknowledge that for you this morning. I'm sorry to hear that she is ill.
Forty alcoholics on a committee is a hoot.
Hope your mom is on the mend. I am glad she has a sober daave in her life. (I am glad I have a sober daave in my life too)
Funny how we can sometimes surround ourselves with people and still feel isolated. Fear raising its ugly head.
Prayers sent out for your mom.
That MW quote is perfect!
Dvd, I borrowed that quote.
Dear dAAve,

I am sorry about your Mom, but I'm glad too that you were present and able to be of help. Take care!
I also hope that your mother will be okay. I'm looking forward to a roundup this coming weekend.
