for Debbie...

This is a blog for my friend Debbie who is in recovery. Debbie is a wonderful, interesting, caring and beautiful person dealing with overcoming addiction. She has also had a really full and interesting life with tons of photos to prove it! I am not a writer and this blog is meant to be an informal and hopefully low tech method for displaying some of the cool stories and artifacts that she has collected. I also hope it gives her a sense of self seperate from her years of using, and in doing this I hope it gives her some hope.
