d**n i just read 🙁 rip
I have just spent two hours reading sabines diary and am sat here in tears. Such an inspiring lady who's courage and determination shone through until the end. To see that she finally married angel after having stole from him so many years before to fund her gambling made me smile. We can all be forgiven. RIP beautiful lady. Your legacy still lives On x
Admin. Has anyone considered getting permission to turn sabines diary into a Book?. I'm sure she would be proud of the help it would provide to others and the proceeds could maybe go towards funding for gamcare? X
New name, just to let you know we have noted your request and wil get back to you.

Thankyou for your reply admin. I enjoyed reading her diary more than I have any books that are currently out there and think it would help aLot of people x
Hi New Name
We're glad you enjoyed reading this diary, we feel it deserves to be a 'sticky' for the journey this person has been on.
Unfortunately as Sabine is no longer with us we're unable to seek permission to do anything with the content. For confidentiality reasons as well it wouldnt be appropriate.
Hopefully people will continue to join the site and read as you have
Best wishes

I remember reading this diary a good few years ago on the old gamcare and the battle with gambling and then cancer. Courage showed throughout and am more determined than ever after rereadings diary to stay strong. Even whilst she was ill she inspired others. R I P but your legacy of strength will carry on x
I have just read all through this diary. Words can't express how much this diary touched me, the first time I've read something and been reduced to tears. I thought gambling had stripped me of all human emotion, but this has just proven it hasn't. What a wonderful woman. I wish I had just a fraction of your strength. RIP.
Been thinking of you Sabine and your Angel. I hope he is coping it seems so long ago we net here but then it feels like yesterday.
RIP my lovely friend xxx
Hi Sabine and Charly,
I am very late to meet you in person, but i did finally found a courage to read your diary since i joined this site two years ago...it was very emotional but i learned so much about life simply from your words. I know you're not with us in body but you're definitely here in spirit..every day 🙂
I also hope your Angel is coping well..of course he is - you're looking over him.
RIP dear soul, you have gifted many lives in this world. And that's true..you have saved more than you could think off.
Forever greatful fellow soldier Sandra xxxxx
Thank you for putting this as a 'sticky'. I am at the start of my recovery and have spent the past few days reading Sabine's diary.
To say that it is inspirational is an understatement. She truly was an astounding person. I hope that I can be half as strong as she was. RIP Sabine. Sending love and best wishes to your family.

Just spent the last hour ready this unbelievable diary from a truly inspirational person.
So very sad and puts so many things into perspective.
God bless and RIP.
Sounds like a truelly remarkable woman. To keep her spirits that high in her darkest hours and not forgetting being gamble free through it all is inspirational. R.I.P Sabine
Wow! Just spent the past few hours reading this incredible story of a truly remarkable woman. The tears are streaming down my face. As I start my journey for the umpteenth time I will take inspiration and comfort from you Sabine. The world may be darker without you but you've lit up the lives of so many. I can and will beat this horrible addiction. I hope your at peace,God bless xxx
