What happens when the sister you love is suddenly fighting for her life and there is nothing you can control?

Home to Me is a raw, intimate memoir about sisterhood, addiction, and the quiet unraveling that happens when crisis enters a family without warning.

When Nancy Herdic's sister is hospitalized with catastrophic organ failure brought on by alcohol addiction, her family is plunged into weeks of uncertainty, fear, and impossible decisions.

Told from the perspective of a sister who refuses to look away, Home to Me chronicles hospital vigils, fractured family dynamics, fierce love, and the quiet miracles that emerge in moments of profound grief. This is not a story about addiction from the inside but about the people who stand beside it, holding hope when it feels unbearable.

With honesty, dark humor, and deep compassion, Herdic explores what it means to love without control, to grieve someone who is still alive, and to redefine healing when outcomes are uncertain.

This memoir is for anyone who has:

  • Loved someone struggling with addiction
  • Faced a medical crisis that changed everything
  • Navigated grief, faith, and family conflict at once
  • Learned that healing is rarely linear and never solitary
Home to Me is a testament to resilience, grace, and the enduring power of showing up even when you don't know how the story will end.
