For those of you who knew Betty, and for those of you who didn't, she was really a gift from God. I was bitter, angry, disgusted with my A, and felt hopeless. I found MIP and Betty agreed to sponsor me. I was able to trust someone who cared about my well-being. She did the Steps with me twice, we did a whole bunch of Step 4's, and she helped me develop an ability to care about myself. I knew she was there for me and I had the privilege of about 7 years with her. I will always be grateful.
