The Addict's Widow

By Claudia Marra

Witnessing the addiction of a family member or loved one is a heart-breaking experience. This candid, raw, and unforgettable memoir is a true-life story of how a loving wife tried to save her husband from an opioid addiction. Unlike some popular memoirs, this story alternates between the human and evil sides of living with an addict. She discovered that not only was her husband's drug addiction spiraling out of control, but that his doctor was at the root of it all. The Addict's Widow gives voice to the emotions and pain shared by the families of addicts. Above all, it is a powerful personal story of how a mother struggled to keep her children from witnessing the unthinkable while trying to keep her husband alive. Part 2 of Claudia's memoir, Picking Up the Pieces is her continued journey on how her and her children recovered from this life shattering experience and found happiness and peace after all.
