“My father had been in the hospital for some time. He had cirrhosis of the liver due to alcohol abuse, though I didn’t know it until later on in life. Every day after high school, I would go to the hospital and visit him. I loved him so much.”

“Listen, maybe someone, somewhere, at sometime will read this, who is standing in the same shoes I used to walk in. My father died at the age of 32, with cirrhosis of the liver, from a life of acute alcoholism. I was ten years old… I became very rebellious against family AND God.”

“I had a group of friends who used to listen to their loud music and drink alcohol to get drunk all the time… Through drunk driving they had to pull out his dead body from among the ruins… There was a young girl that I often saw getting drunk… When she died suddenly, her friends were very shocked and never looked the same again.”
