Jones, M.Ed/M.A Meditation Teacher, Psychotherapist and author of The Stain: A Book of Reincarnation, Karma & the Release From Suffering and Medicine Buddha/Medicine Mind.The deeper I read into Kathy's story, the more I wanted to cry out to God, 'How much should one person have to endure?' Battling Stage Four Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, for decades she also agonized over her son's drug and alcohol abuse. Kathy's unfailing love for her son prompted everything she did to help him, yet he kept having relapses. Often driven to despair, she didn't understand that her enabling hindered him from taking responsibility for his actions and choices. She wrote, 'It would take years and many Al-Anon meetings and prayers for me to break my addiction to his addiction and be able to set firm boundaries for myself and him.' Throughout it all, Kathy never stopped loving her son, always had hope for him and for herself, and always trusted God. Because her heart's desire is to offer hope to those dealing with addictions, Kathy offers a wealth of materials at the end of her memoir. They include sixteen lessons she learned over twenty-three years, several pages of resources for parents of addicted children, and book discussion questions.--Linda K. Thomas, memoir teacher and author of Grandma's Letters From Africa and Please God, Don't Make Me Go.If family alcoholism and the author's physical illnesses were this story's only focus, readers would miss the pot of gold at the end--a rainbow of hope, one metaphor in Kathy Pooler's excellent memoir, Just the Way He Walked. Though no sunshiny fairy tale, Kathy's courageous story takes the reader through the ugly to reveal the beautiful, reason enough to keep turning the pages in anticipation of a hopeful ending, as I did reading her fine sequel to Ever Faithful to His Lead.--Marian Longenecker Beaman, author of Mennonite Daughter: The Story of a Plain Girl.
