My wife and I regularly attend a local "Couples Group".
Only couples attend and both members are "In Recovery". That is to say, each of us is in AA, Al-Anon, or both.
Isn't life full of surprises! I thought that Al-Anon was spelled Alanon. When I wrote the word Alanon, it was underlined in red.
So I "Googled" Alanon and found out it is spelled Al-Anon!
"Goes to Show You" the more you know, the more you know you don't know it all!
Out of all of the meetings we have attended world wide, this is the first Couples Group meeting we have ever known about and it is easily one of the best meetings we have attended anyplace in the world.
Let's regroup here.

A word about Al-Anon.
I quote the first sentence of Chapter 7, page 89, of the AA Big Book..
PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE shows us that nothing will so much insure immunity from drinking as intensive work with other alcoholics.
Get it? Because we are working with, and sponsoring, other alcoholics, pure and simple, we in A.A. can benefit from Al-Anon.
If you are interested, the below link will tell you more about Al-Anon.
