I think Angelo came to Milwaukee because one of his uncles invited him to live with him. Now that Angelo had changed his ways and apparently there was a renowned ms specialist who would treat him, Angelo had ms which needed transfusions Every Few Months, lots of meds, and it affected his ability to walk or drive, even to eat Some Days. His wife was a great help, but my heart went out to her too, in that his condition limited their freedom as a couple.
Ever wondered how someone can turn a life of hardship into a beacon of hope? Meet Angelo, whose story is nothing short of extraordinary. Growing up in a state-run orphanage in Brooklyn, Angelo faced unimaginable challenges from a young age. He ran away at ten, surviving on the streets with sheer resourcefulness and grit. But like many, he turned to drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism, leading him down a perilous path of crime and addiction.
In this episode of 'Busting Addiction and Its Myths', Bruno J. introduces us to Angelo, a man who found his way to sobriety against all odds. Angelo's journey took a pivotal turn when he hit rock bottom and ended up at a Salvation Army center in Chicago. There, he met Captain Sally Ross, who introduced him to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and helped him discover a unique higher power.
Unlike traditional beliefs, Angelo found his higher power in the love and support of his AA group and ordinary people around him. What's truly inspiring about Angelo's story is his unwavering commitment to sobriety despite ongoing struggles, including a severe sclerotic disease that affects his daily life. His resilience and honesty have touched many lives, proving that recovery is possible no matter the circumstances.
Angelo's tale underscores the power of community and the idea that a higher power can take many forms. This episode doesn't just tell a story; it offers hope and practical insights for anyone battling addiction or supporting someone who is. Angelo's life serves as a testament to the human spirit's resilience and the transformative power of finding hope in unexpected places.
