Betsy Schnell Comtess is a homemaker, mother of two, dental hygienist, stroke survivor and active church member living in Gahanna, Ohio. She is also an alcoholic. In this book she shares her inspiring story of how she lived a seemingly good life mixed with alcohol use, went into a downward spiral reflecting the depths of a life marred by alcohol addiction, and found redemption via a path to a more meaningful life without alcohol.
