In some form of recovery since 1992, this is Cathy's first talk at a major event. Cathy did a marvelous job as a last minute substitute for the scheduled speaker Bo T of Alabama. She did not realize until a year and a half into the program that she had a legitimate qualifier for the program one generation back in her family.
Raised Baptist by a mother who was raised in chaos, Cathy lived a sheltered life and has never had a drink of alcohol. She married a man in her church who had quit drinking but was an active sex addict. She first joined S-Anon for families of sex addicts. Later she hid out not sharing in Al-anon until she realized how her own family was her real qualifier.
