  3. I'm so impressed with Candan story.She has been a strong woman and even though her alcohol addiction she had never lost the faith in God.I think that it's the most important think in the world because sometimes when we are facing problems we forget completely God and don't believe that if we do well he is going to help us with all our problems.She didn't give up and was able to win her weakness and also her brave fight against alcohol made her start working and helping people that are in the same condition as she some day was.
    Therefore,i think that when we have problems it's good to ask for help,we don't have to feel ashamed or think that people will ignore us if we tell them that we are it or that because no one is perfect.

  4. Eury, you are exactly right. People think they are weak if they ask for help. On the contrary, they are strong because they recognize that they need others to get them out of their situation. If I got stuck in a hole that I couldn't climb out of, would I just wait there to die because I was ashamed to ask for help? No, I would scream "help me!" The same for the addict. Who is wise? The person who recognizes his/her own limitations and seeks the help of others.

  5. I believe she is one example for thousands in the world. Despite there exist many medicines and treatments in the world, the power to fight any addiction is inside us. Only faith in god and our effort is the key.
