TRACY MORGAN - MORGAN: 'MY SON HELPED ME GET SOBER'

MORGAN: 'MY SON HELPED ME GET SOBER'

Comedian TRACY MORGAN realised he had reached rock bottom in his battle with alcohol when his teenage son begged him to stop drinking. The 39-year-old has long battled substance abuse and was forced to wear an alcohol-monitoring ankle bracelet last year (07) after a number of drink-related charges including driving while intoxicated. Morgan is now sober and happy and credits his three children with his new lease of life. He says, "My oldest son asked me not to drink, so that was rock bottom. "The best thing is the personal growth. My body feels good. I feel funnier."
