I came to Fredonia House in January 2008. I left numerous times, to go back to an abusive relationship. He kept promising me he would change but he never did. He promised me he would quit drinking but he never did. Every time I was around Greg, he would drink then I thought I had to drink along with him. I have been in the hospital several times.

 This last time I came back to Fredonia on June 23, 2008. I realized coming back to Fredonia and attending meetings was the only way for me to stay clean.

Now I'm able to stay away from my abusive boyfriend. I've been clean and sober for 75 days today and I'm really proud of myself for that.
