I have been sober for a little over three years. For me it is a combination of treatment, faith and AA. There are many resources available. Here are a couple of links.

It's easy to romanticize the dead but great jockey? Come on, man. Let him rest in peace but lets not lose perspective.

Coachie Luv I'm not correcting you or anything but here's a story...

There's another board that I haven't even logged onto for literally years but I can remember starting a thread, back when he was riding out here, and it was something like 10 years from now who will be the greatest living jockey and he was my choice.

I thought he'd be one of the greats and that's not looking back cause the poor kid is gone and trying to turn him into something he wasn't... it's just what I thought (I remember others saying Talamo) at the time.

What a ****ing shame.
