Publisher's Summary
In this raw and captivating memoir, a woman whose mother had long been a high-functioning alcoholic shares the often overlooked effects of having an alcoholic parent as an adult, as well as the complicated and emotional journey of getting a parent help.
Kaplan Grace’s mother was a great mom. She always held down a job and provided for her family. No one would have known that she was struggling with addiction. But when her mother’s closet alcoholism finally spiraled out of control, Kaplan began to understand how deeply addiction impacted her childhood and how difficult it would be to get her mother help.
Saving Mom is an unflinching glimpse through the lens of a daughter who helps her mother get sober. Relaying stories of relapse, recovery, and sobriety, Grace shares her journey and reveals the murkiness of what defines addiction and how admitting to the problem can lead to the greatest and most fragile gift: Hope. Learn how breaking through the stigma and assumptions can carry an adult daughter and her mother through the battle in this compassionate memoir about alcoholism, trauma, and most of all, love.
