Here’s a Winner – Dr.
Bob, Cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous
In his last
major talk to AAs, Bill Wilson said this:
It had been
decided that Bob would attend mostly to the questions of hospitalization and
the development of our Twelfth Step work.
Between 1940
and 1950, in the company of that marvelous nun, Sister Ignatia, he had treated
5,000 drunks at St. Thomas Hospital in Akron.
His
spiritual example was a powerful influence, and a never charged a cent for his
medical care.
So Dr. Bob
became the prince of all twelfth-steppers. Perhaps nobody will ever do such a
job again.
