I was given this understanding that I have as much chance as any other human has of making it through this right.
Kristy M.'s story is a powerful narrative of resilience and recovery. After a swift and severe descent into alcoholism in her 30s, Kristy found herself grappling with the devastating impacts on her family and career. Despite the short duration of her addiction, the effects were profound, leading her to seek refuge in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) in 2018. The initial steps in AA were a lifeline, but Kristy's journey was far from smooth.
Early in her sobriety, she faced two monumental challenges: her husband's debilitating stroke and her own diagnosis with a rare form of spinal cancer. These crises tested her resolve, but the support from her AA community became her anchor. Kristy talks about how the fellowship and guidance she received helped her navigate these turbulent times. Her story underscores the importance of community, sponsors, and the AA program's steps in achieving and maintaining sobriety.
Through her candid reflections, Kristy offers hope and insight for anyone facing similar struggles, proving that recovery is possible even in the face of immense adversity.
