Praying for Clean
0 - Default Title
Description
Tricia Jacobson and her sister Pam grow up in a close-knit family in rural Missouri. But when their parents divorce, the once inseparable sisters take very different paths-Pam, the star student and athlete, begins to spiral into addiction, while Tricia learns to bury her emotions and press forward.
What starts as a few bad choices for Pam quickly turns into a devastating battle with drugs, mental illness, and self-destruction. Tricia watches helplessly as her sister loses everything-her future, her safety, and even the ability to care for herself. From the moment Pam is found beaten and left for dead in a ditch to the countless times she relapses, Tricia struggles with the pain of loving someone she cannot save.
Through heartbreak and resilience, Tricia builds a life of her own. She earns her law degree, starts her own business, becomes a mother and stepmother, and navigates love and loss. But her story is forever intertwined with Pam's. When Pam becomes pregnant, Tricia helps her make a loving but difficult choice. It's a choice that leads to a chance for a new life, a new beginning-but Pam's struggles are far from over.
As Tricia fights for her sister, her strong faith helps her discover her true purpose: to advocate for those society too often forgets.
A powerful memoir of sisterhood, substance abuse, and second chances, Praying for Clean is a deeply moving testament to the unbreakable bond of family.
Tricia Jacobson is the author of the award-winning YA novel Nova: The Courage to Rise.
