Overview
Two Calls is the story of a family's journey through extreme trauma, addiction, and recovery. It is written from the perspective of the Mother, who does not give up on her son through it all. Her faith sustains her, grows stronger and her hope springs from it helping her son not give up on himself.
Description
Two Calls was born from a family's experience through extreme trauma which led to drug addiction. This addiction continues for many years and wreaks havoc on all of the family, extended family, and friends. Many lessons are learned during this time and hopefully represented to the reader so that they can benefit from the experience rather than making the same mistakes. The hope of this book is that it gets into the hands of any family who can benefit from these life lessons and find the resources to help them weather the storm of addiction of a family member or friend. The reader hopefully finds peace and comfort through finding their faith and learns how to care for themselves first rather than losing themselves in the process of seeking help for their loved ones.
