I'm grateful to god first of all, and I'm grateful to the program of alcoholics anonymous and to the fellowship for the love that I have received, the unconditional love from the people in the rooms who truly accepted me as I was and who truly taught me how to live through working the steps and through trying to practice the principles of this program.
Picture yourself in a room filled with people who have walked the path of recovery for decades. This episode of Sober Cast brings you the Old Timers meeting from the 38th annual SENY Convention held in Rye Brooks, NY, back in March 2004.
