info_outlineFor the benefit of our listeners who may be new to the show,
On July 2, 2013 our oldest son died suddenly and our lives have been forever changed. Andrew struggled with addictions and mental illness for at least 12 years before he took his own life.
This podcast is one of hope.
Loss and grief will come to everyone.
But we want to encourage you that 12 step groups can equip you with tools that can help you to cope these disasters. You don't have to believe that these tools will work for you but you do have to believe that they are working for us most of the time, some of the time?
