I knew 2 of my Great Grandmothers....and down the line
no one was addicted to anything...
well maybe religion...soap operas and ice cream....
Then my only sibling and I slid into both alcoholism and
AA recovery years ago.....
Our 5 children...2 did....3 have not. 1 uses NA the other in and out of AA.
Our 5 granchildren...1 had a drinking history...now AA sober 12 years.
