Greetings!
 Summer is already midway through. Can you believe it? Let's all take some time to relax a bit and reflect on our blessings. Our lives are busy at Changing Lives. As Chaplain, I continue to counsel with and meet the needs of the inmates at the Weld County Jail (Greeley, CO). Judy facilitates our online private group for families dealing with addiction, and provides our readers (you) with helpful info from our blog, three websites, educational books, CDs and DVDs. This month we are excited to partner with The Addict's Mom to bring you a wonderful 60-min. podcast, "Addicted Child? What do you do?" (see below).
Also in this newsletter:
> The Still-Drinking Alcoholic's Award-Winning Show
> New book review: Mountain Air, Relapsing and Finding the Way Back . . . One Breath at a Time > Celebrity Drug Addiction: The Curse of the Child Star > Drug Addiction Relapse: The Revolving Door . . . and much more.
We are working on a brand new resource to help families caught up in the horrible Meth problem this nation is facing. Details soon!
Judy and I thank you for all the posts, prayers, support and feedback on our blog and Facebook pages. God Bless,
~ Joe & Judy Herzanek

Drug addiction relapse happens often. It happens more than we would like to admit. Addiction has been called a chronic relapsing disease. Addiction relapse is when the person in recovery chooses to try some controlled using again after attempting to remain abstinent. View Post
