Book excerpt: The ravages of alcoholism not only affect the alcoholic but the lives of everyone around them. The escape isn't easy and the end result can be disastrous. Steve Allen was an alcoholic who overcame his battle and yet lost in a terrible relapse. His story is here to help those who find themselves trapped in a bottle of despair. There is hope. Steve started drinking at age fourteen and never stopped for years. He eventually entered rehab for the first time at age twenty-seven. After several tries Steve finally became sober and remained sober for eighteen years. During those sober years, Steve's life took off. He went from paramedic to firefighter, to fire chief to fire protections engineer. He had it all. He was in his second marriage, and he had all the material things he wanted. He had a wife with a successful career and two wonderful boys. Steve thought he was 'cured' and could handle 'moderate' drinking. Once he started again, he couldn't stop. He lost his wife, his children, his job, and everything he owned. In the midst of his drinking, detoxing, rehab, and drinking cycles, he met his third wife. He finally became sober again, which inspired him to write this book. Shortly after writing this book, the damage to Steve's body took its toll. This is his story, his struggle, and his hope to help. This is Grace Anonymous.
