Happy 4th of July Weekend from your friends at Sober Sunrise!
Scott R. from Van Nuys, CA speaking at the South Bay Roundup in Torrance, CA - July 3rd 2004

Scott recounts growing up in a chaotic Bronx household and later spiraling into heroin use, he details the ways alcoholism silently hollowed him out, despite 18 years of psychotherapy and various attempts to outrun the disease. With remarkable honesty, he shares how he and his wife Nancy—both shattered by addiction—found new life through the 12 steps, fellowship, and spiritual awakening in Alcoholics Anonymous and Al-Anon. Scott’s story is rich with wit, pain, humility, and redemption, showing how he rebuilt broken family ties, embraced sponsorship, found new ways to serve others (even when flipping burgers for those who once hired him), and grew to cherish a God of mystery—not miracles. Through his vulnerability, humor, and fierce dedication, Scott embodies the life-saving power of surrender, service, and the shared journey of recovery.
