And then, he used again. But he was working on the twelve-step program. He had a network and a plan of action. And he called his sponsor, telling him he’d used and was craving again, saying, “I just want one more, and I don't know what to do.” His sponsor, Carlos, immediately responded, “I'll pick you up and we'll go to a meeting.” That's just what he did, and he is Eirial’s sponsor to this day. What about Eirial’s Father? “I made amends with my dad, he made amends with me, and thank God my father died sober. He passed away sober, and I was sober when he passed. For the both of us, that was extraordinary.” CALL JV’S AUTO SHOP TODAY! 770-912-4785 13
