Bill is joined by Tom M for a new episode of the UDRCast. Tom shares his journey from a challenging childhood and severe addiction to a life of sobriety and recovery. He talks about his past experiences of homelessness and crime on the streets of East Hastings, his multiple stints in treatment, and the moment he started to see AA literature in a new light, which pushed him to thoroughly follow the program. Tom also shares about the loss of his wife to suicide, and the joy of reuniting with his mother after nearly two decades.
