"...Alone (again) on my boat with an enormous amount
of cocaine, I fully intended to explode my heart. Cutting
fat lines sure to end my addiction misery, an unrelenting voice in
my head urgently insisted that I "write this down!".
Finally giving in, I found a pen and began. My hand
would not stop writing. What spilled out onto that paper
astounded me to such a degree that I threw the cocaine
overboard. Alive and 20 years later, those very words
begin Chapter 1 in my book "Dark to Light".
As a teaching tool, I share many tough lessons including
how reality is perceived and justified in an addicts
broken brain, discovering the one word that was my life
ring, 12 Step based solutions for the pain and problems
of addiction and a very short sentence that can open the
door to recovery...."
Dark to Light is a captivating emotional experience and
an astounding exercise in honesty and courage. In Chapters
2 and 3, Dean offers realistic hope to those scared to death,
desperately struggling for a life of recovery, sobriety,
strength and freedom from the beast
called Addiction.
