Episode description

In this episode, I share my experience after learning that my husband of over twenty years was a drug addict. My sole mission became to protect and shield my children from the ugliness that addiction brings with it. I filed for divorce and a court order to have him removed from the home. It was one of the toughest things I've ever had to do. 

To families of addicts: Hold on to hope. By the grace of God, my husband found recovery and now uses his experience to encourage and support others in addiction.

There are support groups for families of addicts, such as Al Anon and Nar Anon who will support and guide you during this painful journey. 

The verse that I held on to during this time was Philippians 4:6-7
