About the Book

If you are an adult child of an alcoholic or have been hurt by someone you love, there is hope for forgiveness. The Shadow of My Youth is a powerful true story about the traumatic and sad life of an adult child of an alcoholic father. It is a life where survival is key, and forgiveness comes only by the grace of God. God loves us too well, than for us to dwell in a self-made hell. He’ll see us through the storms of life, and there are no storms in paradise.
