This book is dedicated to my family, and to all the families across the nation that have endured and are enduring the challenges of addiction. It is my hope that this book’s honest portrayal of a personal perspective, as well as a loving parent’s perspective, will help to provide hope and inspiration to those families to never give up. To those who are no longer here—including Gerry Harrington, who helped countless others with his generous spirit of hope and healing—this book is my prayer that those suffering gain the strength to conquer their challenges and that those who have lost loved ones know that their prayers were not unheard.

OUR ANGEL WRESTLES WITH ADDICTION
THE END & THE BEGINNING
“Have you planned his funeral?”
That’s what the doctor said: Have you planned his funeral?
He said this to us in a matter-of-fact way. Because it was pretty much a fact: Connor, our son, our firstborn, just nineteen years old, had been laid to waste by addiction.
