Life on Life's Terms: My Gratitude Speaks (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781469709086)

Author Frankie Marie learned from an early age that it was best to keep her mouth shut. That way, she could avoid the abuse that was a common occurrence in her household.

Although she didn't begin using drugs solely because of the abuse, it definitely played a role in the choices she made. Her hard life growing up certainly made it easier for her to go down the wrong path. Even now, after getting help and being clean for many years, her past weighs her down.

By sharing her story, she hopes to help others who have been abused or battling drug problems get help. In this inspiring story, you'll learn how abuse can lead to addiction; how to get help if you have a problem; how support networks can prevent relapses; and how to move forward one day at a time.

Join Frankie and discover how she became an addict, how she beat her addiction, and how she now works in the court system to help others recover and start living Life on Life's Terms.
