Editor,

My best interests are to pursue the issue of getting an alcohol treatment facility started on the Flathead Indian Reservation, one that would draw people to recovery. This would help the young adults from the bad effects of drinking and the evil danger it does to good people — and to get the drunk drivers stopped.

Alcohol can wreck a person’s life. People could benefit from this development. It could become a real asset by joining people together to work for recovery, have lifelong jobs to go to, and build good, strong relationships. All old burdens will go away, ruined friendships will be reunited, new trust will be built by depending on helping one another succeed.

The 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous are always available. We learn from our struggles, and life does get better if we work at it. All things are possible through God. Miracles do happen. 

Sobriety is number one for the alcoholic who still suffers. Life does get better. We’ve got to have faith.

I’m a living miracle. I am a member of AA and have been sober for two years. This is the longest time I have been sober in many years; I feel good and don’t crave booze anymore. I finally have seen the light, and I battled booze for 40 years. I hope to become an alcohol counselor. I am very grateful for today. Amen.
