Kenny has been sober 31+ years
KEN says he grew up in a pool hall and has no regrets about that. He and friends got a hold of some liquor when he was 14/15 years old. He says “from that point, the koo-koo was out of the clock.”
He says he had the mental obsession part of the disease right from the start. He couldn’t wait to do it again!
Kenny says he drank past embarrassment.
When he finally “got it”, Kenny says “I got back to AA and someone would talk to me and take my mind off of ME !“
Kenny says “take this disease out of the shadows” I just love that!
Some of Kenny’s notable lines include but are certainly not limited to: -“Nobody comes into recovery on the wings of victory”
-“The correlation between the number of meetings you go to and how you feel is not by accident”
-“I’ve rarely seen anyone walk through the doors saying ‘I’ve got a pretty good life but I think I’ll get sober!”’
Kenny is a luminary around the halls of AA. I love the guy.
I hope you benefit from the content he provided us by showing up and recording.
