About the Book

I know what it's like to be half alive and not even realize it. Or if I ever got a "moment of clarity", it didn't last long enough for me to do something about it. It took a wake-up call of losing my family and my home being in foreclosure for me to finally realize it wasn't just a little drinking problem and I wasn't hurting anyone but myself for me to finally do something about it. I soon realized it wasn't going to be easy but in essence, I was saving my life and that's what kept me going when I wanted to just give up and go back to drinking many times in the beginning. More than half my life was over. I was 45 when I got sober for the last time. By then, the losses were piling up and my achievements were a distant memory. I saw people losing their lives because they couldn't get sober and since no one's ever come back from the dead to tell us how good it is on the other side, I decided to save my life and see what that had to offer. I had many goals growing up but being an alcoholic wasn't one of them but that was where drinking took me. I finally accepted, "once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic" and decided to do something because wishing myself sober wasn't going to work. I share what I learned with anyone who wanted help and go to any length in order to do so. It keeps me humble and reminds me the disease hasn't changed. No matter how much time I get in sobriety, if I pick up a drink, it's all over and I'm right back where I started. I didn't get in trouble every time I drank but every time I got in trouble, I was drinking. It was time to finally achieve some goals and get back into life. AA saved my life. I was told I can't keep it unless I give it away so I decided to share my experience, strength & hope to anyone who wants to listen. You can't make someone get sober, it's a program of attraction and that's the purpose here. If you can honestly identify with anything in my book, you just might be one of us. I strongly suggest you do something about it because it just might save your life.
About the Author: I was surrounded by alcohol from early on and couldn't wait to drink. I used to see homeless men panhandling and drinking cheap wine and that was MY definition of an alcoholic. It kept me out there drinking till I almost lost everything including my life. From playing in a band from 13-28 year old to serving in the US Navy from 29 to 36, drinking was a big part of my life and I loved it. I got right back into music when I got out of the Navy and the drinking and partying continued. The consequences of my thinking I didn't have a problem started to have a direct effect on me but I simply ignored it. Getting divorced didn't really bother me, I had done that before. But not being a part of my son's every day life had a big impact on me. It was then I realized, I was hurting others and not myself and decided to do something about.
