Help! I'm looking for testimonials covering the odds of recovery - crediting the potentials of the recovering addict - I had the absolute pleasure of attending Harmony Foundation back in the spring of '99. I followed up with 4 months in a "halfway" project and then returned to a new life. I have no intentions of decieving readers; there were bumps along the way. But, with the love of a baby daughter, I have found my way to sobriety, happiness, education, and some modest status in the community. I recently recieved notice from the state that I will lose my driving privliges due to my history. A history which is just that ... history! I did 90 days and have since been on probation for 4 yrs. I have now finished my obligations to the state ... so I thought ... now it seems that I must pay all over again - I may lose my licence for 5 years! This, I believe, is unfair to me, my work, and mostly my beautiful daughter, Grace. I don't ask for references from those who don't know me personally. More, just for thoughts which I might present to those who judge me by my numbers instead of my accomplishments since this new oppurtunity has come my way. Thank you for your input, David Stroud
