In this heartwarming episode of Recovery Radio Network, Celdon L. shares her captivating journey as a member of the Clinton-Alanon Family Group. Speaking to a large audience at the 'Sessions by the Sea' conference in 1986, she recounts her life story with humour and honesty. Celdon paints a vivid picture of her upbringing in Clinton, the struggles she faced after her father's death, and the lessons she learned from her resilient mother.

She candidly discusses her marriage to Buford, their early years filled with love and challenges, and the pivotal moments that led them both to seek help through Al-Anon and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Her narrative is peppered with anecdotes that range from light-hearted to deeply emotional, making it easy for anyone to relate to her experiences.

You'll hear about Celdon's efforts to 'fix' her husband's drinking problem, her eventual realisation of the futility of these attempts, and the transformative power of the Al-Anon program. Her story is a testament to the strength and support found within recovery communities. If you're looking for an engaging and inspiring tale of resilience and personal growth, this episode is a must-listen.

As Celdon beautifully puts it, 'Today, well-lived, makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope'. Don't miss out on this touching account that underscores the importance of community and perseverance in the journey to recovery.
