Description
Witnessing addiction in a loved one can be a heart-wrenching experience. This memoir is a raw and unforgettable account of how a wife struggled to save her husband from an opioid addiction, revealing the human side of living with an addict. The author's story alternates between the pain and suffering caused by addiction and the evil side of the medical system that enabled it. A powerful personal account, The Addict's Widow shares the emotions and struggles of families affected by addiction, highlighting the need for change in the way we approach treatment and recovery. Part of a two-part memoir, this book continues Claudia Marra's journey as she recounts her family's experience and their path to healing and happiness after a life-shattering event.
