Unfortunately, even though recovery has been the best thing for me, and I am more happy then I have ever been, I am still considered a crabby/angry person to my wife and my sister-in-law. So the example thing is out. I did however email her today to explain my concern for her. I did not accuse her of having a problem, but told her how things have improved in my life, whether she see it in me or not. Then I told her I am always available to talk. I also told her that no one, not even my wife knows that I am reaching out to her. At this point it is in God's hands. I’m in a situation like this with my sister-in-law.
