Robb was a doctor living in a million-dollar house with his wife and kids. He drove a Porsche 911 and earned well over a quarter of a million dollars a year. If most of us work up in his shoes we would think we had wone the lottery. But this wasn't the full story.

Robbs drinking was worse than ever and he would blackout, not for hours or days but for weeks and he couldn't remember what had happened. On top of the lost days, his violence was getting worse to the point where he stabbed his wife three times because she wouldn't let him drink. He was heading in a direction he could have never imagined.

One by one everyone abandoned him. They all walked away, his wife, kids and friends. He lost everything including his doctor's license. When he finally woke up from the drunken haze it was 6 months later when he was homeless sleeping under bus shelters.
