Thanks for listening! Let us hear from you. Are you in recovery or want to be?
What if you knew exactly where your addiction began? Sally Jones shares with us her story of being adopted and how growing up even in the most loving home with two of the best parents she could have ever asked for, still made her feel less than and abandoned. Teased and tormented in school she managed to make it by soothing her pain with alcohol. Later though, life took an unexpected turn and a devastating back surgery turned her to abusing prescription drugs. Relapse after relapse she felt her life was pretty much over. Until a special encounter asked her a poignant question: have you prayed? Listen as Sally unapologetically talks about her relapses, but explains every step it took to get to where she successfully is today. There are many laughs along the way, too!
