Mothers of addicted and alcoholic children share a deep connection--one that is rarely understood by anyone who hasn't experienced a similar path.

This expanded second edition of Tending Dandelions continues the tradition of Hazelden's beloved meditation books by providing moments of recognition, confession, and healing for those who are realizing that recovery rarely follows a neat or comfortable path. Author Sandra Swenson puts into words the thoughts and feelings of so many on this path, reflecting the experience of mothers living in the place where love and addiction meet.

Mothers of children struggling with addiction face challenges few people truly understand. They carry the weight of fear, uncertainty, and heartbreak while trying to do what is best for their children and their families. Too often, they feel alone in a journey marked by stigma, shame, and unanswered questions.

Yet even in their most difficult moments, they keep going, because, as Swenson puts it, like the deceptively delicate dandelion, we moms are made to persevere.

Now with over 100 additional meditations, the beloved Tending Dandelions can be used as a daily tool--becoming an even more vital source of wisdom, support, and strength to help mothers begin and sustain their own journey of recovery.
