Because loosing your love one's is not easy. Even when we are not related, but we are still brothers and sisters.
To the family thinks for sharing the story.
When I look at young people in my own community alone Tebza, my heart breaks at the sight of young boys and girls who have become slaves to various drugs.

The story of David's fate is just a reflection of what happens to people on a daily basis. Many people are held hostage in some dangerous lifestyles. I hope humanity draws strength and hope from this book.
It just goes to show how a single event can shape your life. Thanks for stopping by!

It was an enlightening read. It's quite easy to judge people when you are not in their shoes. Once you experience their reality, you cannot not change your stance. I learned a lot from this book for sure!

really must've cost Patricia a lot of a courage to handle or try balance the situation in her family because seriously from knowledge and from what I've seen in other families lifes around me , some really give up in situations like Patricias.
I really like and admire these preview.
I also applaud Patricia for her role in helping and supporting her son. Drug abuse is a serious challenge in our communities. Thanks for leaving a comment Jeremia!

Pharmaceutical companies are unfortunately in the business of making money before anything else. Sad reality.

So sad to see that the author lost such an amazing child like David. It is really thoughtful to write a book. I hope she has fully healed from the trauma. Thank you for your honest review.
