I was in trouble in overcoming my addiction to alcohol,and so was my friend Mike.We never met each other until we chanced to be in the same selfplaced inpatient treatment facility.Now we had been out of the treatment center for about a year and had returned to our lives.We have become inseparable friends like brothers.
The thing that kept me and my friend Mike going during these times was our ability to be the counselor for each other.There was never a time when I had not called him that he did not call me right back within a couple of hours.We got together every chance we could to keep us both on the right track.
One day,I called Mike but he wasn't in.As usual,I had to leave a message,fully expecting to hear from him later that evening or the next day.When I had not heard from him for nearly 2 days,I started to become very anxious as to what could the problem be.Surely there must be something significant that had kept him from returning my call.On the third day,I received a message from my wife that Mike's wife had called and wanted to speak
to me.She said she would be calling later in the afternoon.I started to worry about the entire thing,as my wife did not even know what Marylynn wanted to speak to me about.When Marylynn called,I immediately knew there was something wrong.Mike had been killed in an unexplained truck crash on
the morning of my call.There were no witnesses and no explanations as to what had happened.
