01 What it was like

Drinking since I was 12 years old put me in a tail spin for many years. Black-outs and waking up in scared places with scary people put my life in danger in so many ways.

02 What happened

Drunk driving in a black-out, two felony counts of hit and run, I woke up in jail with a broken hand & bad hang-over! I went to Alcoholic Anonymous because I knew if I didn't get sober, I would end up dead or in jail!

03 What it is like now

I've been sober since 1990! I've been blessed living in recovery. I'm very grateful for Alcoholic Anonymous, the program saved my life!
