A Father Losing His Daughter to Addiction - Paperback

by Anthony M. Varone (Author)

This story recounts the painful struggles of a daughter's addiction, told through her father's eyes. It takes

the reader on a journey in living and dealing with her addiction. This is a story similar to many addicts. A

Father Losing His Daughter to Addiction will hopefully not only help those struggling with addiction but

also help to educate family members, and give them hope and ways to cope during the struggle. The

author hopes the reader "can really see the pain [his] daughter lived with as well as any addict, and how

this disease destroys lives and families."

Anthony M. Varone explains, "My daughter meant everything to me and was my life. I loved taking care

of her the day she was born. Life today is very difficult for me without her. I always loved being active and

riding my bike or playing golf as well as working out but today that is hard to enjoy because of how lost I

find myself. I'm searching for my way back from her death. By going to meetings with my daughter (when

she was alive) and my meetings of Nar-non, it has opened my mind to see both sides that exist for the

addict and their family. It has educated me about her life as well as my life."
