Thanks for sharing this Susie. You touch on so many powerful and personal points in your life. The AA friends I’ve had as lifeguards I’ll always have. Just FYI men do this as well as women do although I understand that’s my experience and maybe not yours. There are angels among and we too can do the same for others when called. 🙏

We don't make it on our own, that's for sure. Thanks for naming the angels. You have me now thinking of mine....

Thanks Sue for this angelic post (hopefully I can live up to all the accolades)! I especially love all of the classic Sue and Lou pictures! Our friendship/sisterhood/partnership is cemented! #SESSCA for life! PS sorry for all of the exclamation marks...

You are such an amazing human! Every story you tell is such an uplift. I subscribe because there is just NO WAY I cannot read the full story. I have been a subscriber for years but once you got on Substack I knew I was going to follow you here. I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day! 🌺❤️
