Audrey B., a heartfelt speaker from the Rock Springs Al-Anon Family Group, takes the stage at the Wyoming Spring Conference in May 1998. Audrey opens up about her journey with Al-Anon, a worldwide fellowship that supports families and friends of alcoholics. Her candid reflections reveal a life intertwined with the struggles of alcoholism, both as a child of an alcoholic father and as a mother grappling with her son's addiction.

Audrey's humour and honesty shine through as she recounts moments of doubt, resilience, and the unwavering support she found within her Al-Anon community. She shares anecdotes that range from the humorous—like following a redhead to speak at the conference—to the deeply personal, such as dealing with her father's periodic disappearances and her own battles with health issues. Audrey's story is a testament to the power of community and the importance of mutual support in recovery.

Whether you're part of Al-Anon, know someone who is, or are simply seeking a story of hope and perseverance, Audrey's words offer comfort and inspiration. So why not take a moment to listen and find out how one woman's journey might resonate with your own experiences?
