Real stories from real patients and families

“I came into Tranquility Home a broken person. Physically, emotionally and spiritually I had almost reached the end and for me this was to be the final reaching out for help of my disease of alcohol addiction. In my stay here, I learnt with the help of the counselors and staff to become whole again. The combination of the peaceful surroundings and the thoughtful counselors and the comprehensive study of the 12 steps helped me immensely to truly discover for myself what my purpose for this life would be. I learnt more here in 3 weeks of the stay than I have learnt from countless psychiatric sessions. Most importantly, I learnt to love and forgive myself and find spirituality which is the keystone of my life.Thank you to all the counselors & staff of Tranquility Home. Finally, I found a place with people who truly understood as they were all there, where I was, before. My heartful thanks to everyone at Tranquility Home.”

The name Tranquility Home says it all. Lovely surroundings, great caring staff, always happy to help put a smile on your face when you are feeling down. Will miss everyone I have met here, but I’ll be back to say hello. Being from Zimbabwe I will carry forward to my fellow ex-drinkers, the hope and the love that surrounded me here. Thank you all very much, I’ll keep believing in my Higher Power and follow the steps that have now become my daily routine.”

“I recommend Tranquility Home to everyone whose suffering with addictions. When I came to Tranquility, the staff welcomed me with warm hands. The atmosphere is full of love, three hot meals every day. It really feels like home. When I came I was hopeless and useless, I felt like I have no purpose but through working on the programme I’ve found who I am. I felt peace in my mind and my heart but more especially I’ve found a purpose. I fell in love with myself again. I’ve found my Higher Power here. Thanx a lot to Tranquility Home”
Nozipho
“When I walked through the doors of Tranquility Home I immediately felt the kindness from the nurses and other patients. Everyone welcomed me with open arms and made me feel at home. The nurses, counsellors, social workers and patients always greeted me with a smile; and understand. When I came in I was broken, lost and had no hope. But, because of the Tranquility treatment program, all the love and support I got from the staff, I had hope. I don’t feel so lost anymore, I feel positive that I can do something great. I would definitely recommend Tranquility Home because it has done great things for me.”
