Dear Jim A. and Family,

January 12, 2001, was my second birthday (not bad for a 52 year old man), and I met it with joy and gratefulness.

I’ve thought of you many times and I look forward to my next visit. Oasis was my seventh center and last hope. Starting my prayer life there not only saved my life, it started me on a life of "Happy, Joyous and Free."

I remember one Fireside meeting where Jim confessed he primarily remembered his "problem residents," not the quiet ones. I, a quiet one, immediately asked for an appointment to meet with him privately. It was important to me that he remember me-as I was already extremely grateful for Oasis.

He asked how my last treatment compared to Oasis. My last program, which kept me dry for 3 months was more expensive, had better food, and a heavy concentration on the first 5 steps-it had no prayer. Not even a suggestion and little opportunity for it.

I am no longer bitter about my last program. I’ve learned much in retrospect from that experience. However, Oasis will always have a special place in my heart. I especially loved the prayer learning sessions, and I’ve been able to share those thoughts with others in my AA volunteer work at another hospital treatment center in my hometown-one of my 7.

I never mentioned this while I was at Oasis, but while there I was a serving, active (ordained) Presbyterian Elder and Deacon. Yet, until Oasis, it had never occurred to me to pray-and I really never

knew how. I do now!

Your Friend Forever,

Dear Kathleen and Jim,

Although you haven’t heard from me lately, it is not from a lack of gratitude. My work is demanding as you might imagine.

But enough is enough. You need to know how profoundly grateful I am to both of you and to Oasis Treatment Center for literally saving my son’s life. You have given him his self-worth as a man, a spiritual basis for living and a community that cares about his life.

Last summer in the depths of his illness, I really felt little hope that my son would ever get well again. You cannot imagine how it touches my soul to hear my son’s laughter and to witness him working, supporting himself and being a responsible young adult.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. And bless you both for devoting your lives to saving the lives of others, the highest of all callings.

Sincerely,

Denise D.

Dear Jim and the Team at Oasis,

Please know that my gratitude and appreciation is extended to all of you for working so hard to help my daughter. Her set back, although painful and disappointing, only reminds me that each of us must rise and fall in sequence with what we have inside and this, no matter how firmly and squarely supported, can only be as it is, regardless of the love and guidance given. I know you all did everything you could to point my daughter in the right direction, as I did. I know it truly lies where it probably has always been, between herself and God.

Please think of her and pray that her connection with God gives her the strength she needs each day.

May God Bless and I Thank You All!

Kathy and Mike F.
