Produktbeschreibung
A riveting and passionate account of the scourge of alcoholism and mental illness on families, Nelly takes readers on a journey of struggle and faith as they explore the honest analysis of one woman's battle against these formidable foes. Holding little, if anything, back from her readers, the author shares tales and anecdotes from her childhood, her college days, and her life as a wife and mother. Sexual encounters, drug and alcohol use, and family dysfunction are not hidden in this memoir, but neither are they glorified. The reader rejoices as Nelly graduates from rehab and rebuilds her life, but they also grieve the circumstances surrounding those family members who do not emerge victorious over their demons. Challenging and emotional, refreshing and inspiring-Nelly unveils the ugly truth of mental illness, as well as the strength and power of the human spirit. It is a story that will challenge and inspire readers to face and defeat their own demons and support and encourage family and friends who battle mental illness every day.

Autorenporträt
Nelly Branson is a retired nurse, who currently lives in Wisconsin with her partner David and two cats. She enjoys traveling, boating, and dancing with David, as well as spending time with her daughter Janelle, who is also a nurse. She intends to bring hope and inspiration to anyone going through the tragic loss of a loved one. Michael is Nelly's second book. Her first book, Nelly, shares her deeply personal story of growing up in a family with mental health and addiction issues and her own journey as a recovering alcoholic. She notes that writing both Nelly and Michael were cathartic experiences, but she also writes for others who have found themselves in similar circumstances.
