In Episode 29, Tony talks about his appreciation for recovery and the opportunities it’s given him — from a career, to meeting his wife who he met three years into his recovery. They have walked the path of recovery together as a couple and just recently celebrated 20 years of marriage.

American Addiction Centers (AAC) presents “Far From Finished,” a weekly podcast that shares the real-life stories of people who survived addiction to thrive in recovery. In Episode 29, Tony talks about having his first drink at 12 years old. By the time he was in his early teens, alcohol and drugs played a major part in his life, so much so that it caused dysfunction within his family. He kept his addiction hidden from his family and would disappear for months, leaving his mother to wonder if he was alive or dead. Eventually, his substance abuse caught up to him leading to multiple arrests and a state of mind where he felt incredibly lonely and isolated. That wouldn’t last long because just three years into his recovery, he met his wife to be. They have walked the path of recovery together as a couple since then, but Tony believes that the important thing with couples that are in recovery together, is that they each have their OWN recovery. They just recently celebrated 20 years of marriage.
