After being told my liver was too bad to ever get a transplant and on my 60th birthday spent in hospital I was told I probably wouldn't see Christmas.
I was 63 in October and on Boxing Day I was 1000 days without a drink.
I have now also been put on the transplant list.
It is tough, but I decided I'd had more than my share of booze over the years and take a day at a time. I look for progression not perfection.
The decision to stop drinking was the hardest decision to take and maintain, but as a wise person once said about bad breath, Halitosis is better than no breath at all. Choose Life x
