💙 More About Alcoholism, Pages 30-33 (Luis)
In episode #120, Luis continues the Big Book Awakening series by reading Chapter 3, More About Alcoholism.
“We are like men who have lost their legs; they never grow new ones. Neither does there appear to be any kind of treatment which will make alcoholics of our kind like other men. We have tried every imaginable remedy. In some instances there has been brief recovery, followed always by a still worse relapse. Physicians who are familiar with alcoholism agree there is no such thing as making a normal drinker out of an alcoholic. Science may one day accomplish this, but it hasn’t done so yet."
