Overview

It is common in our society to highlight the success stories of foster children who have been adopted by loving and devoted families. These examples give us hope. They encourage us to open our hearts to adoption so that these children may have the chance to thrive in safe and stable homes where unconditional love abounds. Unfortunately, reality doesn't always measure up to these hopeful expectations. Many families discover that they are ill-prepared for the vast challenges that these children bring, leaving them overwhelmed with doubts and feelings of failure. Having Done All, Stand captures the real-life story of an adoptive family struggling to care for their mentally-ill son. Follow their journey as they navigate through the aftermath of trauma and abuse suffered during their son's most crucial years of development that resulted in a deep depression, overwhelming fear, uncontrollable rage, and maladaptive coping skills. Gripping and entirely honest, this book shares the side of adoption that is rarely spoken about openly. It provides a glimpse into the world of mental-illness while expressing the heart of a steadfast and devoted mother who is determined to stand firm in the midst of her family's darkest days.
