Evie S - Life Changes Over 35 Years in Recovery - Meeting 159

Evie has been in CoDA for 35 years and has done service throughout most of that time at every level of the Fellowship in three different CoDA communities and at the world level.  She found CoDA after many years of therapy and other personal development efforts and believes that CoDA and the 12 steps have given her the most important tools she needed to heal her relationships especially with members of her family of origin.  She met the love of her life through recovery and they were together for 31 years and married for 29 before he passed away last June. Their relationship went through many periods of struggle and she truly believes that it would not have survived without the CoDA tools.  Her ongoing CoDA recovery and her many CoDA friends have been her primary support during this past year. Reco12 is an organization with the mission of learning and sharing the similarities of addiction of all kinds and gaining and sharing tools and hope from others who are walking a similar path.  We come together from all places, faiths and backgrounds to gain tools and hope from others who are walking a similar path.  Reco12 appreciates your help in keeping us working our 12th Step with these great resources and services for the addict and loved ones.  We gratefully accept contributions to help cover the costs of the Zoom platform, podcast platform, web hosting, and administrative costs.  To become a Reco12 Spearhead you can quickly and easily become a monthly donor here: https://www.reco12.com/support or you can do one-time donations through PayPal (https://www.paypal.me/reco12) or Venmo:  @Reco-Twelve .  Thanks for your support!To record a Reco12 Shares … share or prayer, please link to https://www.speakpipe.com/reco12shares and leave a share or your favorite recovery prayer.
