      @@larrymccormick4401 Not bad for an old man. My grandfather used to say that and now I say it! TBH a lot of leg pain due to being hit by a car in 2014 that I live with daily and a deteriorating heart. some days good some days bad. And I'm losing the last of my sight due to retinitis pigmentosa. Sorry, but you asked! But in everything I do, grocery shopping, cleaning, laundry, etc. when it's done I always say "Thank you God." I have MUCH to be greatful for and wouldn't trade my life for anyone's. God and AA gave me that. 42 years sober and counting. Thanks for asking!

    Bob you're describing my LIFE to me. I'm 12 years sober through the Grace of God, but I had a short drinking career. People here in Ireland don't talk about this stuff enough, the ISM the way the disease talks to you in your own voice. it IS baffling.

    Bob D. I have heard a number of your RUclips speaking postings - you speak TRUTH!!! I can so relate to what you share and it is NOT shared ENOUGH in the rooms. Alcohol/Drugs were my solution to my problem with ME and with LIFE. Once I stopped drinking and using I had to find A POWER GREATER THAN I WAS for my solution to heal me and to deal with life. Thanks for your MESSAGE! The steps and the program and service and sponsorship and going to meetings all together used at the same time is our solution! You gotta have em all to heal one day at a time!

    Bob Darrel is an incredible scholar of this program. I am closing in on six months, and my discovering these leads on youtube, Adam T is also awesome by the way, has turned my door to recovery into an enormous gapping hole, spewing through it, a new fantastic and free way of life. I love it. To any who may be where I am mentally, physically, and most important, spiritually, you know what im talking about. This program truely is a gift from God. I would love to meet Bob Darrel, does anyone know how that might be possible

      Bob D, Mark Houston, Sandy Beach..just some among many that by the Grace of a Higher Power have received the same perfect amount of love given to anyone who calls on God for help. Ol Chuck said it in everyone of his talks/shares..."we are all God's kids." Anyone seeking a better way of life thru the work of AA can find it. It is all about the "work, work, work !". My story is reflects living in the 1,2 3 - 10,11 & 12 everyday. Includes prayer, meditation, doing the next right thing, constant maint. conscious contact and working hard at not letting hipocracy creep into the work being done. Get you some.
