indulge me if I get nostalgic ... six years ago on NYE, I walked out of a party giving my can to the host and said "I am done". Three agonizing days later I googled 'fake dip' and landed on KTC. I've been attending that same NYE party for the last six years and every year I would have a new coin with me. I made it a point during the night to show it to the host and ask him if he was ready to embrace freedom. Every year, he would tell he'd quit when he was ready......

In October he joined the site but never got involved and I was pessimistically optimistic of his success.....Last night he told me he was on day 84...

Thanks Justin for texting him.
And thanks to all of you who continue to pay it forward
