First Steps to Al-Anon Recovery
The format these podcasts are in are not accessible by iTunes. I've listened to them on the Web site and they are great. Please put them in a format iTunes can read! Thanks, Teddy
Wonderful Information!
These podcasts are absolutely wonderful! My husband and I are currently separated due to his alcoholism and these podcasts have given me hope and helped me gain the courage to attend my first Al-Anon meeting. I highly reccomend downloading these podcasts if you are desperate for a change. They have helped me see how unmanageable my life has become and that I am powerless to alcohol. If you are too afraid to attend a meeting please download these podcasts they will help! I am so grateful I found them!
