Details
by Irene Reilly (Author)
In this timely book, Irene generously provides readers with access to her emotional landscape as a mother supporting her eldest son through opioid addiction and ultimate death by fentanyl poisoning. Ohana is also a portrait of persistence, resilience, and the power of community. In it, we witness Reilly navigate the systems, organizations, and individuals that comprise the army fighting endlessly to resolve the opioid crisis and to support those affected by it.
"This is an important book for anyone experiencing this trauma, as well as those trying to support them," said Angie Hamilton, Executive Director at Families for Addiction Recovery. "There is something remarkable about mothers who have lost a child who raise awareness and advocate so others will not face the same tragedy." Marina Nemat, author of Prisoner of Tehran and After Tehran, said: "In this remarkable book, Irene Reilly walks us through her journey of love, loss, and grief. She puts her vulnerability as a mother on the page and shows us that human resiliency can push darkness away so that hope can grow. Heartfelt and honest, I highly recommend it."Materials + Care
