No more drinking.. .just think of all the money I am going to save....Just to let anyone out there know that might not.. I used to drink a lot.. another biggie in my steps to healing - admitting you were an alcoholic. I don't want anyone to think that I do not take drinking problems seriously, because while I might joke about being an alcoholic, I don't think I ever had a drinking problem. In fact, drinking and I have never had any problems...
Interestingly, this has been a hard one for some of my friends to understand. They are thinking that I need to go out for a celebratory glass of wine... really what is wrong with just one glass of wine? Probably nothing, but you know, no one can understand why or how I got this cancer... what if it is the alcohol? There is a definite link between throat cancer and drinking. I am realizing that as important as alcohol was in my life, it really was not that important.
From a vodka tonic girl to a soda water and lime, this is a hard transition. Because I have been feeling bad, I haven't really had much of a drink craving at home. Because I haven't been really socializing it hasn't really sunk in yet. The hardest thing is understanding what I am going to drink.. nothing fun about plain water while sitting at the bar. I am going to have to find some signature virgin drink.
