A fascinating and very personal look at the opioid crisis from someone who lost her son to it. Very honest a book every parent should read

A raw and honest account about how drugs can destroy and devastate a family. Sylvia lost her son Aaron to drugs. Her account and the statistics she gives are heartbreaking. Having been given addictive painkillers for continuing chronic pain I understand how withdrawal feels. There needs to be more awareness about withdrawal and the help that is needed.

Thank you to Netgalley for my copy.

Very honest read about the author's son and his experience with drug addiction and his subsequent death. My condolences to the author and I commend her for sharing this story with such honestly. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book. Although I received the book in this manner, it did not effect my opinion of this book nor my review.

Such a heartbreaking story of loss. The author tells us the story of how she has lost her son to drugs.
I cannot imagine what or how she felt while writing this.
It’s a brave, raw and emotional read.
Thank you to both NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for my eARC of this book in exchange for my honest unbiased review.

The author of this book lost her 30 year old son to drugs. It's obvious that she poured her heart and soul into telling this story. And it had to have been very hard emotionally to write. I hope it helped her grief to write about Aaron and tell us about his life, which shouldn't have ended so young. My thoughts are with her for its a heart breaking story.

* I was provided an ARC to read from the publisher and NetGalley. It was my decision to read and review this book.
