We wear suits, carry attache cases, are PTA Moms, your lawyer, your accountant, your gas station attendent, the manager at the supermarket, the announcer at the Super Bowl, the CEO of a new bank, and the owner of the new mansion down the street behind gilded gates. Only 3% of alcoholics make it to the final stages of alcoholism and skid row. The rest look pretty damn good.
It’s easier to spot a Baby Boomer. We all have the same vaccination mark on our left shoulder. If you look real close, you can see where we were punctured. Not so with alcoholism, as it’s cunning, baffling and powerful and pouncing on someone you love right now. Fortunately, help is always close by. Pray for guidance.
