About this audiobook

I am writing this book in the hope that I can save just one life. Unfortunately, I suffered many years with a disease that changed my life, but not for the better. I had a family that suffered. I didn’t want to live a lifetime in bed, so I did my research. In 2017, I found an answer that led me to leaving opioids behind. My main intention is to help those addicted to opioids and how they can break that dangerous habit. Enjoy reading my story to understand what I was dealing with, why I needed strong pain relief, what my life was like, and how I weaned off of high-dose Morphine and Fentanyl without going into a facility. If I could do this, then you probably can too! - Her writing is deeply personal, sharing real-life experiences to inspire healing, hope, and strength in others who may be facing their own challenges. Lisa’s story is one of perseverance, transformation, and the power of never giving up.
