One in four has an alcoholic or addicted loved one. Out of Control is a fictional account of a family in turmoil over a parent's addiction. Author Kate Lion has created a story rich in plot and character development that will entertain and inform. The heart-strings of the audience will be ‘plucked’ by the life-like characters. Those that engage in the literary journey of the novel Out of Control and the series The Forgotten Ones will gain a comprehensive understanding of the progression of the disease of alcoholism and addiction. The confusion, chaos, and possible crises that family members often experience in relation to a loved one's addiction are revealed. As an experienced therapist and teacher, author Kate Lion has intentionally crafted a narrative that is a compelling fiction with embedded psycho-educational material. The reader will discover many resources that inspire personal growth. Mindfulness meditation is just one of those. Healthy behavioral and thinking patterns that can be changed or adapted to facilitate independence and life path empowerment are introduced. A variety of supports that are readily available in communities that will help family members to cope and even thrive when a loved one is caught in the throes of addiction are revealed. Lion boldly presents the risks posed by opioid medication and leaves the reader wondering how these prescription medications have become so prevalently prescribed.
