"Good morning Mr. Schwary,
I just left TLC's Dana House and returned home to Colorado.
I want to THANK you. Your program saved my life. Ever thought about trying the program out in Colorado??? There is a HUMONGOUS need for it here in my hometown.
Thanks to you, I now have the tools to start my life completely over. I am reconnecting with my family. Old friends and old behaviors do not even factor into my life. THANK YOU!!"
These are the messages that we like to receive because it shows that our mission of helping substance abusers rebuild their lives does work.
And the reality is that our program works for anyone who puts in the effort.
This man followed TLC guidelines just as they were written. He didn't use alcohol or drugs. He went to meetings. He got a sponsor. He worked and paid his service fees. He participated in program activities.
And if he keeps applying what he learned while with us he'll continue to live a life free of the tyranny of addiction.
