“Although everyone’s journey with this is different, there are just some things every single parent of an addict can feel in their bones and relate to in your words. I felt like you were speaking to me and that you GOT ME. I felt understood and seen.”
“I am an expert in addiction, I have been cited and given awards many times. But I had no idea what to do when my own sons became addicted. I wish I had had your short stories and I hope that every parent reads this even before their kids develop a problem”
“When I read your stories I cried. I felt like I was in the process and on the journey with you and your family. It is a reflection of what I have been witnessing and experiencing with my own family. I love your conversational writing, I love the links to resources or where to find help. I love how real it is. It’s not full of scientific mumbo-jumbo that families cannot wrap their head around while they are in the midst of this crisis.”
