Sober 28 years since 9/25/1987, Carla is now married to Doug who spoke the night before at the same event.
She had given up on the possibility of a long term relationship just before they had a chance encounter.
They are both passionate about AA and got sober in the Los Angeles area.
"The beauty of Alcoholocs Anonymous was that I didn't need to be any more than I was or know any more than I knew - God met me right where I was."
She grew up in a messed up family. Her parents came from a harsh environmet and they passed that on.
She knew there was a Spirit of the Universe since a very early age but could not connect with it.
She did not think life was fair.
"But my sponsor told me the Fair comes around once a year and it lasts for two weeks."
