This
review is from: Fifth Child: The Turbulent Path That Led to Parenting Our
Child's Child (Paperback)
A riveting read, Fifth Child takes you through
the indescribable tragedy of a family held captive by the heart wrenching
manipulations of a drug addicted daughter and the resulting need to protect and
raise her baby boy. Anyone who knows the insidious decay caused by drug
addiction will be moved and strengthened by this blatantly honest and
unvarnished true story. Told in a conversational style, as if being shared over
a cup of coffee, Lynne Gassel bares her soul, so that others in a similar situation
will most certainly be guided to recognize signs and to face realities that
Lynne and her husband Stu, in their initial naivety were unable to see. You
will laugh and you will cry; you will be educated; ultimately you will learn
once again, that love, especially the love of warrior parents, does indeed
conquer ALL.
