"The strength of our recovery is in direct proportion to our ability to laugh at
ourselves." Laughter heals, particularly the laughter that comes when we understand
the lifesaving difference between "how it was" before recovery and "how it
is" living in sobriety. These hearty cartoons and humorous anecdotes reflect with
powerful clarity how our drinking or drug-using days contrast with our lives
