Produktbeschreibung
Addiction is a beast that weaves through generations, wounding innocent children despite their parents' love. Victoria's parents' alcoholism affected her throughout her childhood, and she perpetuated many of the same experiences and patterns in her own adult life, and later, in her parenting. Coming to Terms is the true story of Victoria's journey through addiction and recovery, including her positive experience with Twelve Step programs, her husband's cancer diagnosis, and her son's death by overdose. Told in a series of flashbacks to both her childhood and her days as a young parent, Victoria's sensitive spirit and tender hope are sure to evoke strong emotion, encouraging readers to continue to break free of their own generational cycles of trauma and strive for a better future. Recovery is possible for everyone, and can help even those deeply struggling with addiction to come to terms with the often tragic and traumatic events that may have occurred in their past.
