Lew F. shares his gripping journey through recovery, peppered with humour and raw honesty. From his early days as an impulsive, compulsive, repulsive drunk, Lew recounts the profound changes that came with embracing the twelve steps and the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous. His anecdotes, like the one about his father hanging himself drunk in a granary, paint a vivid picture of the chaos and pain that addiction brings. Yet, amidst the darkness, Lew's story is one of hope and redemption.
He speaks candidly about the transformative power of grace, describing it as an 'unearned favour' that has guided him to sobriety since November 16th, 1963. His reflections on the meaning of love and genuine concern for others under all conditions resonate deeply, offering valuable insights for anyone on a similar path. Lew's experiences in AA, from attending meetings to sharing his story across Canada and even Africa, highlight the universal nature of addiction and recovery.
His message is clear: recovery is possible, and it's a journey worth taking. Tune in to hear Lew's unfiltered and inspiring tale, which might just be the nudge you need to take the next step in your own recovery journey.
