My name is Don and I am an alcoholic.

And by the grace and the power of a loving God I have been continuously sober since December

26th of 1967 and I think it's very important to begin telling people that there's a lot

of lies that have crept into AA over the last few years and I want to break one of the

first ones.

If you're an alcoholic you don't ever have to drink again, relapse is not a necessary

part of recovery.

It does occur but it's not necessary.

So we talk about our sobriety day where I come from.

I'm not caging by the way except in an honorary sense I can now cook it to faith.

I'm a member of Alcoholics Anonymous and my home group is known simply as an AA group

and looking for a name for the group we looked at the long form of the third tradition and

says that any two or more alcoholics gathered for sobriety may call themselves an AA group

so that's what we call ourselves.

We meet at 6 o'clock in the morning at the example of St. Joseph's Hospital in Denver.

Man I've never played a room like this in a head of drinks actually before.

May I take this jacket off?
