"Thanksgiving Gravy" The memoirs of a grieving mother; shares both the tragedy and the triumph , a matchless journey through Judy's grief and recovery process over a period of three years . Her short stories and poems will delight you and give you hope as they are writings that can be identified with. She is real in her depiction of her son who was an alcoholic with a drug problem who lived on the edge. A light hearted chap who loved others and was always helping others but lacked self love. A young man who was in the prime of his life with everything to live for . Thanksgiving Gravy is a great cookies and milk book for the griever and anyone who has ever lost a loved one or anyone close to them.
