Anger, frustration, depression, uselessness, feeling completely alone...I've been there! Wake up in the morning shaking; out of sorts until I drank that first drink or took a handful of pills… I've been there! Trouble focusing, keeping commitments, continuously not making it to work due to being "sick”....I've been there. Feeling so alone you contemplate the intricate details of how you’re going to remove yourself from this world...I've been there! Countless attempts to get sober or stay sober...I've been there! Rehabs, Psych Wards, Institutions...I've been there! My resume of addiction may be just like yours...so WE'VE been there! My name is Dan and I'm an alcoholic...this message is for the still suffering alcoholic/addicts that are searching for a new way of life. The message is THERE IS HOPE!!!! I tried every conventional and unconventional way to get sober & stay sober and I failed...until I found Quiet Creek Farm. I call it my second home because I know I welcome to go back and visit as a sober man, now for over six months. I found hope, compassion, love, and a new perspective of life!
Yes, LIFE! I relish it now and live just for today!
-Dan H.I write these words with the happiness, gratitude, and peace of mind that I was afraid I would never feel again. Our son’s long journey with addiction finally led him to his salvation, Quiet Creek Farm, a place where he was able to begin his true recovery in a sober atmosphere of caring individuals. QCF has worked for him when countless other rehab programs did not even begin to change his path. Without going into long and unpleasant details, I’ll just say that for years our family was torn apart by the actions that resulted from our son’s addiction, and the lengths he went to in order to satisfy those needs. He became a person that I did not recognize and could not believe that he was my son, but we never lost faith. QCF offered him a safe and sober environment in which to live and work among others who love and understand him. He has learned to be productive, optimistic, and satisfied with the young man he is. I will be eternally grateful to the Templetons for making their dream of helping men like my son a reality.

I am on that proverbial pink cloud. And though I know life will have its twists and turns, I feel confident that with the foundation you helped establish and my new found dedication to the 12 steps and traditions, I will lead a much more tranquil life – a clean and sober life! My wife loves the “new” me and once again recognizes the man with whom she fell in love. There are so many things I have to thank you for, so many things I have taken away from Quiet Creek, that it would take volumes to enumerate them all. Right up there at the top of the list are:
The support and friendship of those who have walked the same road, people with whom I could laugh at all our (past) ridiculous antics. The self-confidence, joy, and pride I derived from the guidance of Rose…moving from a person with some fear of horses to a person who is confident, competent, and of benefit to young and rescued horses. (now volunteering at a horse sanctuary). The insight and spiritual growth germinated from the time spent with both young Mike and old Mike. The beauty and tranquility of the farm and all the people associated with it.
I can never thank “yall” enough. I plan to stay in touch on a regular basis. I know that if I ever start getting that “tweaky” feeling again, I have a second home where love, peace, and recovery abound.
Your grateful friend,
-Rob
p.s. Give a few extra carrots to Midnight Girl and a few extra cookies to Bubba.
