Mustard Seed [Season 10, Episode 6]

Deb tells Don and Sam about being a blackout drinker at an early age. Over the years she became hopeless, not knowing about a way out. A suicide attempt brought Deb to a hospital and that brought her to AA. In AA she found a modicum of hope that kept her coming. After many years of sobriety, Deb's life now is filled with service to alcoholics in many forms. Check out Grapevine's Instagram for a photo of Deb's overstuffed Big Book. In Listener Feedback we hear from Scott; in a new feature, Using Traditions in Our Lives, we hear from John, Sharron and Polly on Tradition Two.
