Thank you, Donna, Debbie, Kathy, and Gabriel

for your generous contributions. This episode is for you.

We are friends and family members of alcoholics and addicts who have found a path to serenity

and happiness. We who live or have lived with the seemingly hopeless problem of addiction

understand as perhaps few others can. So much depends on our own attitudes and we believe that changed

attitudes can aid recovery.

Before we begin, we would like to state that though we at the recovery show, maybe in a 12-step program, we represent ourselves rather than the program.

During this show, we will share our own. We represent ourselves rather than the program.

During this show, we will share our own experiences.

The opinions expressed here are strictly those of the person who gave them.

Take what you like and leave the rest.

We hope that you will find something in our sharing that speaks to your life.

My name is Spencer and I am your host today. Joining me is Eric. Welcome Eric.

Good morning Spencer.
