Sober 10 years since 7/10/2009, 54 years old, Allan was two years dry reading the book without an active sponsor, alone in a barn preparing to hang himself. He found himself on his knees in a pasture. He looked over his shoulder to the moon shining through the dark clouds and remembered the saying,
"His light will shine through even in the darkest of times."
He was at a meeting the next day and heard what he needed.
He jumped into the Program and was led to a Big Book study where he met his current sponsor Patrick.
