Maybe That Someone is You [Season 9, Episode 8]

Mary tells Don and Sam that she was a real closet drinking, scrunched up in there with a warm beer. Mary describes her moment of clarity and the opportunity it gave her to act. She says that the hardest three words for an alcoholic are I-NEED-HELP, but she discovered that two alcoholics talking together creates a power greater than self. In this weeks feature Don tries to Stump the Thumper — let's see how Mary fares. Chris, from the Woodbridge (NJ) Big Book Group tells us about his group's 12th Step work using Grapevine magazine.
