Synopsis

How do you survive when your child is battling addiction?

When the person you love most is losing their fight, the fear, guilt, and helplessness can feel unbearable. You may find yourself asking the same questions over and over: What did I do wrong? How do I fix this? How do I keep going?

Still Standing After All the Tears is a deeply honest and powerful story of one mother’s journey through the heartbreak of a child’s addiction—and the fight to reclaim her own life in the middle of the chaos.

Valerie Silveira shares the raw reality of watching her daughter Jamie spiral into addiction at just fifteen years old, surviving a near-fatal shooting, and facing years of uncertainty, fear, and emotional exhaustion as Jamie battled what Valerie calls the addiction Beast.

But this book isn’t only Valerie’s story.

It’s for every parent, family member, or loved one who feels like they are drowning while trying to save someone else.

Through personal experience and practical guidance, Valerie introduces the 9 Weapons of Hope®, the powerful mindset tools that helped her survive the darkest seasons of her life and begin rebuilding her strength.

The 9 Weapons of Hope® include:

• Decide to Stand Up & Fight
• Get On Your Spiritual Armor
• Put on Your Oxygen Mask
• Build Your Circle of Strength
• Change Your Attitude
• Adjust Your Focus
• Stop Being a Control Freak
• Stand On Your Story
• Make Meaning From the Madness

These tools help readers:

• break free from guilt and shame
• stop being consumed by someone else’s addiction
• rebuild emotional strength and boundaries
• find hope even in the middle of crisis

If you are the parent or loved one of someone struggling with addiction, you may recognize yourself in these pages:

• exhausted from constant fear and worry
• blaming yourself for what’s happening
• trying to hold your family together
• wondering if healing is even possible

This book offers something many families desperately need: permission to stop drowning and start standing again.

“This book did more for me than all the hours of counseling ever did.” —Nancy

Note from the Author:
This book was written before my daughter Jamie was murdered, during the years I walked beside her addiction. The insights shared reflect the mindset and emotions I experienced during that time. I’ve chosen to preserve that perspective because it represents the beginning of my healing journey and continues to help others facing similar battles.
