Elton Got Sober 20 Years Ago
Elton John was in Indianapolis to perform for a benefit celebrating the life of Ryan White. Ryan was young child when he contracted HIV through a tainted blood transfusion in the mid 80's, Ryan died in 1990. Elton maintains that Ryan helped to change his life“It was one of the greatest things in my life to meet Ryan’s family, to be there the last week to try and help, and then for that wonderful message that he gave me to change my life around, It was weird to take stock and think of it — I’m 20 years sober this year, and it’s 20 years since Ryan died, because I got sober shortly afterward.”
