but the one I will never forget that was life altering.

I mean, the biggest of them all was the phone call of a relapse that left him in a coma

for nine days.

Thank you Anne and Lori 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 a seemingly hopeless problem of addiction

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

that changed attitudes can aid recovery.

Has your loved one relapsed?

Did you expect it?

How did you react?

Today we're going to talk about relapse.

Before we begin, we would like to state that though we at the Recovery Show may be in a 12-step program, we represent ourselves rather than the program.

During this show, we will share our own experiences as they relate to the topic of relapse.

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'll be your host today. Joining me as co-host Jessica. How are you today Jessica? I'm good Spencer. Thank you. How are you? I'm great and welcome to your your first experience on the show. Yes, thank you.

I've been asking Jessica for a while and finally schedule.

It's like worked out, you know.
