THIS LIFE

About the Book

I knew I had a drinking problem after my third time being escorted to the drunk tank following another dui arrest. Little did I realized what my drinking was really doing to my body until November 21, 2002. This Life changed dramatically following a stroke that left me rethinking where and what and why I messed up so badly. Then realizing life really is too short and a new positive approach needed to be enacted for my life to really mean something.
