July 21

"By the fall of 1937 we could count what looked like forty recovered members. One of us had been sober three years, another two and a half, and a fair number had a year or more behind them. As all of us had been hopeless cases, this amount of time elapsed began to be significant. The realization that we 'had found something' began to take hold of us. No longer were we a dubious experiment. Alcoholics could stay sober."

I had that same feeling when I left my first meeting. That these people 'had found something.' And I wanted it. Seeing it work for others was all the proof I needed. It was literally the first time I had felt hope....In years. I'll never forget that. Thanks for the post Mike B.
