We all have unique stories to share with others and learn from our experiences and those shared with us. I began writing this book when I still had relatively raw memories of the hardships I lived through with my teenage son. My story for you is more like an exploration of my relationship with my son, who taught me a lot by putting me through a lot. I started this exploration as a wounded soul. Yet now I am a triumphant woman who can turn around the tide of adversities and practice trust, hope, and faith against all odds. It is my personal victory, and I would love to see other moms victorious. My mission is accomplished if you find any lessons from my experiences applicable to your life. And if my story made you feel better, my mission equals a double accomplishment. So here it is.
