Former commando Chris Thrall returned from a year in Hong Kong
suffering severe psychosis from crystal meth addiction. The medical
profession said recovery was unlikely and recommended admitting him
to a psychiatric hospital. 'There's nothing wrong with me!' Chris
refused all intervention and his life descended into a chaotic
cycle of drug use that almost killed him. Salvation came in a
surprising form. *** In this long-awaited follow-up to Eating
Smoke, Chris tells a harrowing yet refreshing and often hilarious
account of addiction and one gutsy journey to recovery. *** 'It's
no ordinary book. It's no ordinary story. It's a must read!' Andrew
Carter. The Thing Is 'There are inspirational life stories and then
there is Chris Thrall's. Read at your own risk.' Adrian Simon,
author of Milk-Blood and son of Warren Fellows, Damage Done

Voices of Courage is the vision of life coach and speaker Brenda
Dempsey to bring extraordinary women together from around the globe
to share their stories in an inspirational book of strength,
courage and transformation. Many women become trapped in their
lives feeling hopeless and alone. They are so overwhelmed by their
situation that they can no longer see a way out until... The pain
they are suffering becomes too much and they reach the critical
point of 'ENOUGH IS ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!'. This is the Pivotal Moment
when they summon up their courage from deep within their soul and
scream ENOUGH - NO MORE.
