These are the things I do with my mom, to help my 

mom stay healthy from her disease. 

Her disease is addiction.

What this means is that alcohol used to make my 

mom sick, but now she is better and I help my mom 

stay healthy so that she does not get sick again.

Sometimes we dance, and sometimes we play.

We do this because exercise helps to keep both of 

us healthy.

My mom and I do art projects together, because 

she says it helps her relax from stress.  

She says that stress is kind of like when I feel 

worried, and that working all day makes her feel 

worried. 

To get rid of the worry we make all kinds of 

beautiful art that takes the stress away. 

Also, My mom goes to meetings. She goes to them 

all the time. She calls them her AA meetings.

She tells me that going to these meetings makes 

her happy and healthy. Her friends go too. They all 

have the same disease of addiction and they help 

each other with it.

When she comes home from her meetings I make 

sure to tell her that I am proud of her for going.

My mom also goes to health meetings where she 

talks about her feelings and her disease with 

someone called a counselor.

She says that it is hard to talk about those things 

at her meetings, so I make sure to give her a big 

hug when I see her. I also tell her that she is the 

best mom in the world.
