Remember Me | Ghost in the Machine
For as long as she can remember, Zoe’s dad Greg was addicted to alcohol. By the time she was 26, his drinking had taken its final toll. And this led to a reckoning. “What are my memories of dad? Am I actually remembering something real, or just creating a memory from an old photo? Was that really me? Or one of my sisters who wore that dress and sat on his knee?” Ghost in the Machine documents Zoe’s search for answers: who was the man she called Dad before he lost his battle with the bottle? And what does she carry of him, good and bad? If this story raised any concerns for you, you can call Lifeline on 13 11 14 and the 24/7 National Alcohol and Other Drug Hotline 1800 250 015.
