Hi everyone,

Yesterday my son was 1 year clean & sober! We are so proud of him and would like to get him something to show our love but not sure what would be appropriate.

Any ideas would be so helpful!

Not sure your whole story ,, but congratulations what an awsome thing,,,, perhaps if he needs his liscense reinstated is a big one,,, maybe money in accountant for each mile stone,, one that he is unable to touch just yet,,, give back to the community in honor of your son,,,, if I knew of your situation I woukd Beable to suggest more

Love stories of theses accomplishments,,,, brings hope to all of us!

awesome.
My son spent his first 3 months at a homeless shelter/rehab run by monks, and one of them carves tao crosses...and I went there and just got him one...he said "oh good, a father benny cross"...

if he is in NA or AA he will get a coin and recongnition...and if they have a soberversary meeting, you should go!

anything you do will be wonderful.
So happy for you.
