The Road Home
Video StoryCorps 18 December 2013
Eddie Lanier struggled with alcoholism for over 40 years,
until his 28th stint in rehab finally led to sobriety.
Homeless and hungry,
Eddie found a friend in David Wright,
a passerby whose frequent donations stood out
Four years after they shared Eddie's
remarkable story with
StoryCorps,
David persuaded Eddie to move into his home.
They still live together to this day.
