When I arrived on February 5th, I was totally hopeless. I had serious doubts that I could ever live a clean and productive life again, and I had doubts that they could offer anything other than any of the other facilities. But I was wrong. My experience there was unlike any other. I was always treated with dignity and respect. And the staff would go out of their way to assure I was learning and obtaining as much knowledge and information possible about my disease.
