(From Dear Grapevine)

I’ve been in AA for nearly two years. In the beginning, I couldn’t understand why people were always saying that they were sober “by the grace of God.” Now, after going through some rough times, I’ve learned a lot.

In June of 1994, I got very sick and found out I had full-blown AIDS; I had not known I was HIV positive. I lost weight rapidly, going from 168 to 139 pounds in two weeks. At that point, the Third Step came to me right away. I turned my life and will over to the care of God as I understood him. And you know, things do get better.

Now I have two diseases, one being alcoholism and the other being AIDS. But there is still no reason for me to drink!
