Gaby's Story: Back from the Edge...Twice

Gaby had it all...until it disappeared overnight. Alcohol was a comfort through the difficult years that followed...until it nearly took her life. You might think this would convince her to never drink again, yet she chose to try moderating after regaining her health and was soon back in care fighting to stay alive. Today she is thriving in sobriety and hopes her story will convince others to stay alcohol-free in recovery.

  7. Thank you so, so much Jean and Gaby... I have known I've had a problem for a while now and been wanting to start Day 1... it's a morning ritual actually... but the afternoon hits, and well.. you know the story.

    Gaby... I can't thank you enough for sharing your story... because of you I am going to contact a local group to ask for help... Must say, I am petrified... but by listening to your story, your strength has transferred to me... and for that, I am truly grateful.
