Show Notes
Sandra shares her Experience, Strength and Hope with captivating storytelling of tragic experiences turned into serenity, hope and a beautiful life. By 16 years old, Sandra had lost her father, sister and mother, and without conscious awareness, carried the blame of their deaths on her shoulders as she entered life as an orphan. And it was alcohol that removed that heavy guilt. A “savage time” she describes it.
After what Sandra describes as a hallucination, surrender, and divine intervention, she finds her way to the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous, at only 28 years old—she hasn’t had a drink since.
