Overview
Te voy a contar una historia, que me pide ser contada. Una historia verdadera sobre drogas, sufrimiento y redención. Sobre el infierno y el cielo; sobre el tormento y la culpa; sobre la fe y los milagros; sobre el poder del amor.
Una historia en la que el "¿por qué a mí?" se convirtió en "Gracias porque a mí".
Un gracias que te puede parecer absurdo si no ves más allá, si no ves con los ojos del alma que encuentra en todo un para qué. El protagonista es mi hijo Francisco (Paco). Él me ha dado su permiso para contarte su historia, que es también la mía y se parece a la de millones.
Las historias superadas ameritan ser contadas, porque pueden servir a otros. Hay cosas que tienen que suceder; que están escritas así para que abran, para que empujen, para que hagan crecer. Las piezas y los actores se van poco a poco entrelazando, a veces durante años, para que suceda eso que ya es.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A moving personal story about a mother’s struggle to overcome codependency and muster the strength to help free her son from addiction.
I’m going to tell you a story, one that’s begging to be told. A true story about drugs, suffering and redemption. About heaven and hell, torment and guilt, faith and miracles, power and love.
A story in which “why did this happen to me?” becomes “thank goodness this happened to me.”
Feeling grateful might seem absurd if you don’t look beyond the events themselves to see the deeper meaning. The protagonist is my son, Francisco (Paco). He gave me permission to tell you his story, which is my story, too, and that of millions of others.
Stories like this deserve to be told because of their power to help others. Some things have to happen, are meant to be this way so that they push you to open yourself, to grow. The different pieces and actors in them come together to make them that way.
