126 Denise Cloughley - Poured me a glass of Life: One woman's journey of choosing life over the bottle

Today I catch up with Denise Cloughley: author, former inmate at Capri Hospital and now a woman on a mission to show others that the past does not equal the future.  I met Denise first on a Friday in March 2014. We were both starting the holiday of a lifetime. 27000 nzd for 1 month full board at Capri Hospital. We were both broken people but had done extensive research into alcohol. As good alcoholics do, we quickly compared notes. Who has the higher liver function tests, where is the best place to hide a bottle. Fun stuff! Fast forward 2503 days. Both Denise and I live lives so beautiful that yesterday becomes jealous of today. We both have found the power to love ourselves, something we both considered impossible. Denise has written this book for one simple reason - to show that the past does not equal the future. She has done so in a beautiful way. The book is well written and its content is honest and incredibly humbling. If you struggle with addiction or have a loved one who does, read this book. It is a journal of hope and shows that with the right help, and willingness of the patient, miracles are not only possible but in fact to be expected.
