RIP Maddie you are healed and at peace. Father Joseph Martin, in one of his wonderful films to help addicts and families, said some people die and get their sobriety in Heaven, and they send sobriety to someone on earth. I cried the first time I heard that as I know that a loved one died and sent sobriety to me. I do not know why some of us get sober and others do not. I know I am not one bit more deserving. Addiction is cunning, baffling and powerful. My heart hurts for those suffering and their families. Thankyou for your beautiful tribute to,Maddie, what a beautiful human being.
