On her wedding day, Nora expected to celebrate ten years of sobriety and the life she had worked hard to rebuild. Instead, her future mother-in-law, Patricia, decorated her wedding veil with wine corks and joked about Nora\u2019s past. The gesture brought back painful memories of her recovery, which had begun a decade earlier when her drinking had started affecting her work and daily life.<\/p>\n

Nora\u2019s recovery had been a gradual process supported by meetings, her sponsor Diane, and the decision to stay sober one day at a time. By the time she met Kevin, she had already been sober for seven years, and he accepted her past without treating her differently.
