• Reduced Stress and Feelings of Depression Live Life Powerfully
Thank you doesn’t seem enough. Your love, and compassion have helped me to see who I truly am and I am so excited to continue on my journey of self-discovery. To “feel” is an exhilarating thing and I thank you and love you for all you’ve done for me. I can’t even put into words how much A Home Away has been the best experience of my life. I will miss you all, you all know how I feel about you…I love you and you are my sources of inspiration. Kalline Thank you for all your love and support. You are truly doing a remarkable thing here. You have inspired me; you gave me hope. James H Thank you for having the courage to dream. It is enlightening and encouraging to experience a dream fulfilled. I have learned that it is OK to dream again and that I can believe that I have the power to make those dreams come true. Hope is an amazing gift, with hope comes do much else; courage, faith, serenity, happiness and commitment to name but a few. So Be It. Brant J You inspire me that dreams do come true! You are an exceptional man! You forced me to be responsible and own my wants! Tough love, a little hard to digest, but incredibly effective! Jennifer R The Home Away experience as been nothing less than life altering in the best and highest order. John and the team are the sunshine and moon dance in the lives of so many. Thank you so very much for all you’ve done and all that you continue to do! So be it. Love always, Randy R Wow what a whirlwind adventure! This place is what life should always be about: Love, Honesty, Openness, Friendship and Courage. Here I’ve found all those and much more. Thank you for helping me find “me”. I will forever be grateful. John, you are a wise and wonderful man! T.J. I thought I knew it all and I didn’t. My whole life needed to be looked at and I am grateful. This place has opened my eyes to so many new things. I am excited to embark on my journey to reclaim my life. The time spent here was amazing; the friends I shared my time with will never be forgotten. This house has a warmth I’ve never experienced and will try to make my home feel as welcome as this one has to me. I will never forget where I learned here. I never thought I’d say this, God Bless you all. Jarrod Y A Home Away, you walked with me through my past and my present. You gave me shelter from the storm. I thank you in every way for your sharing, caring and knowledge. Your gifts will stay with me always. Diana K The knowledge I have gained here in the last month has allowed me to begin my recovery in a spectacular way. I truly hope many more find the doors to this wonderful place.

God Bless, Peter G Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me find myself. I love being Bonnie again. A Home Away is so warm and cozy. I had no time to be lonesome as I was at my second home. John you are awesome, I thank you. Bonnie C A Home Away truly is a gift of God; it is gift that keeps on giving as each one of us leaves touching other people’s lives in our journey. For me it has given a new meaning to live life, I have rediscovered myself with feelings of who I am. I now will be the man, husband, and father that I truly am. A Home Away is filled with unconditional love which I’ve felt throughout my stay. For all that I’ve become throughout my stay and my journey ahead I thank you from my heart. Thanks for being part of my recovery and who I am. Robert U I can hardly find words to describe the transformation I feel I have begun since stepping through the doors here at A Home Away. Nothing remotely close to “adequate” comes to mind, as I write my last thoughts to all of you before my journey back to North Carolina. Each of you has given me so much; the ability to stop the denial and look at myself honestly; I stretched to forgive and then love myself; I came to forgive key people in my life; I was heard; I learned to speak impeccably, not to take things personally, or make assumptions and to just do my best; I found I love to paint! And I realized I am worthy of love, respect and honor. Thank you, to each of you, for sharing your gifts, your time, your energy and your love… you will forever be a part of me. Gratefully! Nancy P A Home Away truly is a gift of God; it is gift that keeps on giving as each one of us leaves touching other people’s lives in our journey. For me it has given a new meaning to live life, I have rediscovered myself with feelings of who I am. I now will be the man, husband, and father that I truly am. A Home Away is filled with unconditional love which I’ve felt throughout my stay. For all that I’ve become throughout my stay and my journey ahead I thank you from my heart. Thanks for being part of my recovery and who I am. Robert U Please accept my deep gratitude for the miracle work you accomplished with my son by giving him back his life of freedom. Your understanding, compassion, and skill were very clear when you facilitated our family meeting, and they are evident in the breakthrough that he has made in his life. My prayers, foremost for my son, but also for our renewed father - son relationship have been answered. May God bless your wonderful work and all you work with. Ron G Thank you for all the love, confidence, and hope that you gave me. Throughout my stay you furnished me with a set of tools that will help me forever throughout my life journey. Au revoir et prenez bien soin de vous. Marc B. I feel again; I feel alive again! Thank you with love to all the staff at A Home Away. You make a great team! Larry D. All things said and done Mark M To all who shared with me at A Home Away. Your love, caring & support allowed me to grow from a totally broken lady into wholeness of body & mind. The experience of 'Let Go & Let God' truly came alive for me. Thanks so! Carolyn K Thank you for believing in me and for encouraging me to change the things I thought were impossible to change. I really do appreciate all the time you spent giving me hope. You make me believe that I'm really a very special person. I will never forget that. You are not only my counsellor; you are my friend too. Love, Mary L We've been blessed by the love, care & nurturing you and your associates have generously & cheerfully showered upon us.

Charles & Lorna To A Home Away and all the beautiful people who reside and work here - I want to thank you all! You have showed me that LOVE exists! Ed F I have spent a great amount of time and energy trying to understand the secrets of life. Now I see that I could never begin to solve anything when I've been too afraid to live. Life is a journey and I've been lying in a ditch, staring at a map for too long... every journey begins with a single step, and I've made mine. Thanks. Brad H "Thank You" does not say what my heart feels. Words pour in and yet they can't express... Thank you for your sharing, caring, and love... for giving me the opportunity to see myself and others in a new light... a gift... Bless each of you as your work continues and I will keep you in my loving thoughts. Bonnie H I appreciate all you have done for me. I would not be here, one year clean and sober, without the love and grace of God and the people that God put in my life to help me heal. You have been a major part of my recovery and healing process and I thank God for you. Bob K |
