    alumni news & views PO BOX 11 informs readers of news, SUMMER 2011 PO BOX 11 events and people who enhance recovery. At home and at work Alum finds inspiration through service At age 33, Ben B. became a stay-at-home dad. Before he knew it, his alcohol consumption escalated, turning him into the dad he never wanted to be. Too drunk to take his three-year-old daughter to swimming lessons, he’d trek with her instead to the liquor store or plop her in front of the television for hours. And there were times when he picked her up from play dates with alcohol on his breath. He knew, deep down, he needed help. He called Hazelden. “I was honest about my drinking for the first time. Something happens when you’re honest,” recalls Ben. “I remember telling the counselor I’d do anything he said—I’d wear red clown shoes and jump up and down if I could take a shower in the morning without, halfway through, wondering what I was going to drink and how I was going to hide it.” “Treatment allowed me to draw a line in the sand—to say, ‘From this point forward, things are going to be different.’” Now, at age 38, Ben takes life one day at a time—without alcohol or other drugs—grateful to a be part of his young family in a way he never could when beer and gin comprised his priority list. “I’m learning to be present for my family,” says Ben. “I finally understand what that means, and it’s something I strive to do every day: Be home for dinner, cook dinner, serve them, pick up the house and set an example for my kids.” His enthusiastic and lasting sobriety landed Ben a job coordinating recovery services for young adults who either attend or want to attend the College of St.
