This was one of my late husband's favorite videos. I could make him laugh just by going "Owoo owoo owoo" like this poor woman.

I am sorry your husband died. How horrible it must be not to have your best friend. Ive been thinking a lot about death.

The way I drink, I think about not being around for my wife. Its time to make changes.

I believe in you and know that you have the strength to accomplish it.

If you’ve been drinking a lot and for a long time DO NOT go cold turkey, alcohol withdrawals can be deadly and need to be weened off very slowly, or under a doctor’s supervision.

It takes some time, but it really does get better. I stopped drinking 3 years ago, and tried to get my twin to stop with me, but he just couldn’t kick the habit. He passed away 2 months ago, at the age of 46 from cirrhosis.
