Struggling for Life My Story

Contrary to the idea that it is the parents who leave a legacy for their children, in this book, it is Alex who bestows a legacy--a gift--to his mother and the rest of his family through his tireless struggle of rebuilding himself away from the world of drugs. Alex's own narration, along with the perspectives of his family and friends, drives a compelling and emotional yet incredibly important narrative. Understanding Alex's story can, without a doubt, help parents and loved ones learn more about the world of addiction and familiarize them with different stereotypes about this illness. Equipped with such tools, the hope is that they can face the complexities of a loved one's addiction in the best way possible.
