and two more accolades, with one response on getting a sponsor
Hi Doug,
I just wanted to say I came across your article on Alcoholism in the Daily News on Friday, 6/17/05. It was a fine article on a subject that is touched very little by the media today. You tell it like it is ( in your opinion) and I couldn’t agree with you more. As you know, my sister Joyce is married to an alcoholic and I know first hand some of the ways in which they operate. I thank you for exposing this illness in its many forms and enlightening the public. Keep up the good work!
And another:
Hello Doug,
I presently read your article in the daily news. I was wondering if at all possible for you to help me on a sponsor? As of today I’ve been sober for 3 months and 2 weeks. I would appreciate your reply.
Thank you
Marianne
Hi Marianne,
Good for you. Keep the course.
Unfortunately, I cannot help you find a sponsor. Here’s what I’d do: attend as many different AA meetings in as many different locations and times as you can. Somewhere along the way, you are bound to find a good “fit” for your personality style.
Good luck!
