“… very unlikely and magnificent achievement demonstrates the power of one young man’s will.” – Joe Falcone

“I literally laughed and cried. Thank you for writing this book.” – Amy Corbecky

“… I am a foster child and I want to go back to the city again because I have six brothers and sisters that I don’t live with anymore. I’m dirty and filthy and stupid and people want to break my neck. I don’t deserve to be near other normal kids. I should listen to the teacher more but I don’t care anyway because she only wants to get money and then go home. I will punch anyone in the face if you even think about bothering me and I mean it!!”

The impact of alcoholism on a New York family is described through the eyes of a young boy. The boy’s journey through a series of traumatic experiences, family shelters, and foster homes illustrates the insidious mechanism of addiction and how it propagates from one generation to the next. His struggle to survive is a story of brokenness, heartache, and hope.
