"Although it saddens me to say, my time at Gilly's House will be coming to an end. On January 27th I will be handed keys to my new apartment. I choose this space due to its proximity to my Waltham office and family in Sharon. The complex is beautiful and I am very excited to continue my journey towards a brighter future. I will not, however, ever forget where I started and all the help I got along the way to get where I am today.
On March 6th, 2020 I moved to West Street with two nickels in my pocket and 30 days of unwelcome sobriety -- I had no idea what to expect! I had lost everything that was once good and still was not sure I cared about anything other than where I'd find my next drink. I knew I hit rock bottom. I knew if something didn't change I'd be left all alone either on the streets, in a jail cell, or.... Gilly's House is exactly what I needed to regain some control and take back my life. Unbeknownst to me I would find solace here. For the first time I admitted I was powerless over alcohol – that my life had become unmanageable. I learned it is possible to be happy and stay sober at the same time. I started seeing things clearer. I started to replace a bad habit with a few good ones. I started getting back things that I lost. I started to realize that the good far outweighs the bad.
I will never forget about all the love and support I have personally received. I have also witnessed more care and support for any man who shows an inkling of need. Gilly's House saves lives and I know that everyone and their families is thankful for that. It is a place to reset, regroup and take back what is rightfully deserved. I can't thank each of you enough (I will surely do so on a 1:1 basis) for everything you have given me. February 2nd will be one year for me and I know the journey will never be over. I know I never want to go back to where I once was and that Gilly's House was the place that has given me a chance to the best version of myself. Thank you all for that and for consistently putting others before yourselves -- you will never be forgotten.
Keep the coffee pot warm and the dishwashers empty.
Ever gratefully yours,
"Just came up on my one year mark of sobriety. Never thought I'd say that. Last January I went to detox, then to rehab, and finally found myself at Gilly's. My real recovery began at that old yellow house. I owe a lot to the relationships I made there. The family we had there was great. To the staffers and to the other residents :),
I owe thanks. I would not be where I am today without the community I had there."
"I should've seen it as a sign that my parents names are
"Barbara" and "Dave". I will forever be grateful for Gilly's House. I didn't think that I would be living the life I am today. You two have created something so special and powerful in this home and that is what it has been for me for the last nine months, a home. I am forever thankful."
