Thunderstruck in Gera: A Stormy Path to Recovery
On May 28, 2023, a powerful thunderstorm unexpectedly hit the small town of Gera, Virginia. The torrential rain and lightning strikes wreaked havoc, with power outages and downed trees leaving the community in disarray. For Rebecca Thompson*, the storm was more than just a meteorological event; it was a catalyst for profound change in her life. Rebecca's history with alcohol dated back to her college days. She vividly recalled a night where a violent storm had resulted in a car accident that she barely survived. The similarity between that night and the recent storm was uncanny, triggering a rush of emotions and memories that pushed her to seek change. Inspired by the guidance offered in the program, Rebecca started to follow its materials diligently. The program's step-by-step approach, focusing on behavioral changes and resilience-building, resonated with her. One of the insights from the program that particularly struck her was a quote from Hollis Hofman: 'Change begins with the first step, but persistence ensures the journey.' Despite the differing viewpoints, Rebecca found the program to be a crucial part of her journey. It was challenging to find local support in such a small town, and turning to an online resource proved to be a pivotal decision. In the end, she realized that seeking help was the best choice she could have made. The unexpected storm had indeed rocked her world, but it also set her on a new, hopeful path.
