My son was a heroin addict for 5 long years. I had a successful blog which was very supportive so I decided to write a book. My book is being sold on Amazon, Barnes n Noble and many other places. It’s called “How I Survived My Son’s Heroin Addiction”. It is a true story of going through the hell and coming out a stronger person. Very inspirational.
