From"Two alcoholics meet:"
"'I have placed both operation and myself in God's hands.
I'm going to do what it takes to get sober and stay that way.'
"Just before they stopped [at the hospital, where Dr. Bob
was to perform surgery], Bill, who also had his practical side,
gave him a bottle of beer...The bottle of beer Bill gave him
that morning was the last drink he [Dr. Bob] ever had.
"Although arguments have been and will be made for other
significant occasions in A.A. history, it is generally agreed
that Alcoholics Anonymous began there, in Akron, on that date:
June 10, 1935."

Isn't that a coincidence that I was born an alcoholic on the same day. Just glad it wasn't the same year:lol:
