Jackie is one of my heroes.  Yes, she has been sober for 15 years but she has taken AA (The Program) and the 12 steps and learned how to live life "staying on her side of the street"... no BS with Jackie.  

She was really an alcoholic...deep into it and is one of those amazing people who turned their lives around.  Her life is an example for all of us.  She is also my niece and best friend.
