Synopsis "Debra's Daughter: A Memoir of Perseverance Through Family Addiction"
Debra is a no nonsense, street savvy, independent woman whose personality clashes with her reserved, smart, young daughter, Bernadette. Despite that challenge, Bernadette's beginning childhood consists of adventures with her siblings and the neighborhood children. They create fun, yet mischievous games in Roosevelt, New York. It is 1980's. The mother of this generation, is love birthed out of Hip Hop, until the wicked stepmother of the crack epidemic surfaces. The latter increases the wedge between Bernadette & Debra. Their lives are forever changed as a result. Despite the adversity of neglect, abuse, poverty and homelessness, Bernadette perseveres by exercising her faith and utilizing help from community members, social workers, and childhood friends. How do those circumstances affect the mother- daughter relationship of Bernadette & Debra? What will prevail, bitterness and resentment or forgiveness and love? Read this true inspirational memoir to discover the answers.
