Pat's Struggle: A Family Torn Apart by Alcohol

Pat's story is a heart-wrenching tale of how deeply alcohol can affect not just the individual, but an entire family. Growing up in a household where alcohol was a staple at every gathering, Pat vowed as a child never to drink at home. But as an adult, he found it impossible to keep this promise. The consequences were devastating. His marriages fell apart, and the lives of his children were irreparably damaged.
One of his children is in the early stages of recovery, while another tragically took his own life, leaving Pat helpless to intervene because he was not sober himself. This episode of Steppin' Out Radio dives into the harsh realities of addiction and its ripple effects on family dynamics, offering a sobering look at the cost of broken promises and unhealed wounds.
