are they done? ABC link is broken and my computer does not like wral
There's no in-stream link w/the usual live-trial announcement on WRAL, as is the case when it is ongoing, so I guess verdict watch is either not going to be streamed, or we will possibly get an alert when there is a verdict -- ya got me, Sanka-Not.
And, as I have said before, my dad was an alcoholic, and everything you have said about the sickness
that it is, not being a choice, is correct. The choice lies in that first drink after knowing you have that sickness. "Make a call, not a cocktail," was my thought, although I stopped drinking before I knew whether I had that sickness. Again, why take a chance? If you can't swim, don't jump in a lake that is 50-feet deep.
And Bravo! to you.
Experience is the only true authority when it comes to alcoholism, as well as, I'm sure, any other true addiction. And that's my child-of-an-alcoholic experience, coupled with long talks with my sober dad.
Stay strong, you wonderful woman, and one-day-at-a-time serenity, courage and wisdom to you.
