I am so sorry it's been a rough couple of years. You should be proud of yourself for being sober for 4 years! That's AWESOME! I personally don't think either of these two factors would inhibit your chances.

The questions you need to ask yourself are the following. Are you emotionally and financially stable? Can you provide a good loving, warm, safe and secure enviornment for a baby? Is your marriage stable? These are the things that are looked at when your going through your homestudy.

Good luck!
