As mothers of children suffering with addiction, we do battle with a disease that oozes misunderstanding and shame. Alone and afraid, we try to do the right thing—even when we’re not sure what that right thing is. We try to hold our families and ourselves together, even when it feels like we’re falling apart. We feel every pain our child feels, no matter the distance (in miles or years). We try to carry on, even when our heart is breaking in two. But, as tired and tattered as we may be, like the deceptively delicate dandelion, we moms are made to persevere.
Together, we will explore the topic of family, self, and what we actually have control over in this place where love and addiction meet. Together, we will find the power to overpower the destruction that addiction spreads.
We may often feel fragile, but we are Dandelion Mama Strong. We are masters of survival.
