Approaching Too Far Gone: An Addiction Memoir

Is one more drink worth your life? Is it worth hers?

Diane is a fun-loving, intelligent, caring mother and wife when she is sober. When she is drunk, the "monster" takes control and stops at nothing to wreak havoc on the ones she loves. As her alcoholism worsens, Diane spirals out of control. Her oldest child, Anthony, attempts to build the courage to help his mom before the "monster" defeats her once and for all.

In his personal journal, Anthony chronicles three days from hell as he battles his mom's addiction. All of the destruction, failed recovery attempts, and heartaches lead to one bloody moment. Does he save his mom in time? Or does one more drink send her too far gone?

Because Wattpad readers are so loyal, I wanted to tweak my full story and offer my family's struggle to everyone for free. My goal is to spread awareness through our experience with the crippling effects of addiction. Proceeds of my full book will be donated to, "To Write Love on Her Arms." It is a national mental health and addiction foundation.
