Description

When Renee Hodges invited her nephew to stay with her for several weeks, she had no idea what she was getting herself into. As Bobby struggled to overcome his addiction to prescription painkillers, the Hodges family embarked on a challenging journey of recovery and support.

This raw and honest memoir tells the story of the sixteen months that followed Bobby's rehab, as he attempted to re-enter everyday life with the help of his family and community. Through journal entries, e-mails, and personal recollections, Renee Hodges shares her family's struggles and ultimate triumphs in their quest to overcome addiction.

A gripping and heartrending story of survival, Saving Bobby is a timely read for those concerned about America's most pressing epidemic. With its holistic and open approach, this book offers a unique perspective on the complexities of addiction and recovery.
