I remember him sitting on the back porch and being so disturbed with life because things seem to be so turned upside down in his world- and they were- and because of the grace and mercy of a loving god, a person who stuck their hand out to buttercup and said: I'll be your sponsor.
What happens when the person you love is battling alcoholism? In this episode of The Magdalen House Podcast, Floyd R opens up about his deeply personal journey through his wife's struggle with alcohol. From his own childhood desires to his adult life, Floyd shares how he grappled with wanting things his way, only to face a situation beyond his control. When his wife's drinking spiraled, Floyd found himself searching for peace in the chaos.
Leaning on faith, sponsorship, and a supportive community, he discovered a path to let go of control and trust the recovery process. Floyd talks candidly about navigating the legal system and making tough decisions, like taking away his wife's car keys to prevent further harm. He emphasizes the importance of mutual respect and dignity in relationships, even when times are tough. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that hope exists for those struggling with addiction and their families.
