This is the true story of a prosperous man and the life changing contributors leading to an addictive disease; in his case, alcohol. Brian Masters endured a contentious divorce, a traumatic attack on his life, betrayal, financial ruin, abandonment, and constant emotional and physical pain, due to a chronic infection resulting from a series of medical mistakes. Alcohol helped him cope, until alcoholism became the real problem. Follow Brian through hospitals, rehabs, shelters, the streets, the people, and the unique subculture of the homeless and/or afflicted. The story is told through Brian's personal narrative and excerpts from his journals, augmented by medical records, shelter records, and police reports. As the story unfolds, Brian discovers multiple paths leading to recovery, providing you with an emotionally uplifting reality of hope for people. This is Brian Masters' story, but he invites the reader to imagine what it was like: to endure chronic pain, to trust no one, to live solely by your wits, to get down and dirty for the sake of survival. Brian Masters could be any one of us, and he asks simply, "Walk in my shoes." It may help save your own life or the life of a loved one.
