      Hello my friend,
      Just checking up on you. !
      So you had a setback….it’s ok. Just don’t let it continue.
      You know you have two beautiful children. You must do this for them . They need you and deserve a good father.
      I can tell that you’re trying. That’s great ! You know that I quit drinking alcohol in 1976. I use to drink to much too. I’m going to tell you……..It was the best thing that I did in my life. Also……..If you need outside help …go get it please. Sometimes we al need that.
      I also recommend that you start Asking God for help . You’ll be surprised !
      So, take care my friend… I wish you the best.
      God bless. Keep in touch
      Bob
