Recovery, the biggest gift it's given me, was I got to be with my sister when she got diagnosed with cancer and I became her care taker ever, whatever it's called, and I took her through the whole process right up to The Day she died and I was with her laying in the bed at the emergency room at the Icu unit when she passed.
In this episode of 'Recovery on the Real', Ce'gon S. sits down with Chris K. to uncover the raw and emotional story of her path to recovery. Chris bravely shares how childhood trauma pushed her into addiction and the manipulative behaviors she adopted to cope. Her story takes a poignant turn as she recounts the loss of her sister to cancer, a pivotal moment that deepened her commitment to recovery.
Through tears and laughter, Chris highlights the significant roles relationships—both supportive and toxic—played in her journey. She emphasizes the importance of honesty, self-acceptance, and forgiveness, revealing how these elements were crucial in her healing process. Chris also discusses the perils of prescription painkillers and the challenges of navigating the criminal justice system while trying to stay sober. Her heartfelt reflections on being a caregiver for her sister showcase the profound impact of service on her recovery.
This episode is a powerful testament to resilience and the transformative power of community and support.
