Born to a verbally abusive and alcoholic mother, Darlene Graves was also hindered by crippled feet and poor eyesight. Her mother called her stupid, and her classmates made fun of her odd-looking shoes. Life, it seems, had gotten off to a very rocky start. Then, even though she completed her education, got a job, got married and had children, Darlene unknowingly became codependent, becoming her children's worst enemy. How she overcame all of this and was able to bring forth something beautiful from her life is a tale that will thrill people of all ages. In the process, her prayer is that you will find the joy she did through Christ and through obedience to His will for her life.
