Tammie - A Mother's Journey through her Daughter's Addiction

Our guest Tammie is an incredible woman.  She has been through so much heartbreak in her life and is here today to tell us what she has learned through it some of it. Tammie had been a nurse for 30 years and currently works in the ICU where she sometimes has to take care of patients with addiction - which coincidently is what her daughter has battled with for the past 13 years.  Tammie first discovered her daughters addiction when she found her lifeless body in their home.  Tammie is such an advocate for treating anyone and everyone as an important human being.  No matter what the story is behind the reason for someone's struggles.   Tammie works with the homeless as well and teaches us a few things about their lifestyle, which was such good knowledge! Tammie and her husband have started a woodworking business, where some of the proceeds from each beautiful handmade cutting board that is sold, go to help fund and assist addicts in their recovery.  For more information about their business go to https://www.etsy.com/shop/WasatchArtisanSupport the Show.
