In 1994 as a result of their alcoholism, Lilian and Murdoch
MacDonald were down and out, sleeping rough in the streets and
parks of Cambridge, the English university town where, a quarter of
a century before, Murdoch had studied for an honours degree.
Refusing to accept what they consider to be the outmoded myths and
dogma of Alcoholics Anonymous, Lilian and Murdoch set about
searching for the underlying causes of their self-harming behaviour
problem, which they discovered lay in childhood. Although Lilian
and Murdoch's upbringing caused their problems, they themselves
take full responsibility for their drinking, most importantly
because taking responsibility for one's own actions is the starting
point on the road to recovery. As a result of their endeavours, the
couple are today back home in Ayrshire, Scotland, leading normal
lives again, with their problems of alcoholism and Lilian's
associated eating disorder well and truly behind them.
Controversially, they are also now able to drink alcohol
responsibly again, if and when they so wish. This book is the
inspiring story of their journey.
