I received a five year prison sentence for crimes committed during my years of drug use and abuse. Drugs were the love of my life. Using drugs, alcohol, and other mind-altering chemicals took away and numbed the emotional pain and hurt I often felt inside. I wanted to feel good all the time. This selfish way of life only increased my problems and inflicted pain and hurt on many people. Ultimately, my addictive lifestyle destroyed all my dreams and came between me and every relationship I had. It cost me my family, jobs, friends, and my dignity. It diverted me from my responsibilities as a woman and a mother, and kept me from a real relationship with God. Drugs took me to the highest highs, the lowest lows, and the sickest places I could ever imagine. I almost died from drugs and some dangerous situations in my life. Amazingly, as you will discover in my story, my five year stint behind bars held the key to my freedom! Had I not gone to jail, I don't think I'd be alive today. Imprisonment led to my sobriety and salvation. I am an extreme makeover, far removed from the person I used to be. I offer my testimony in hopes of helping someone who is now living in a similar situation as I was in my past. Perhaps, revealing my experiences, and my eventual triumph over addiction, will save a life; or save someone from the anguish of wasting so many years, as I did. It took some time for me, but it happened when I totally surrendered my life to God.
