5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, August 5, 2008
This review is from: Walking Like a Duck: The True Story of a Nurse Walking from Addiction to Recovery (Paperback)
Having just discovered the depths of denial in my own addiction, I was enormously grateful to find a book that I could relate to. As an RN finding that Im not the only one, and that recovery and continuing to work as a nurse was still a possibility. Patty, in sharing her story, made it easier for me to accept my own addiction and keep me on the road to recovery and a life of joy that I didn't know was possible! Thanks for sharing Patty!!
