Jennifer Needle in Her Arm:
Healing from the Hell of My Daughter’s Drug Addiction
by Bonnie Kaye, M.Ed.
Book Description
Jennifer Needle in Her Arm explores the emotional turmoil that parents go
through when they have either lost a child to drugs or have to deal with a
child currently addicted to drugs. Bonnie Kaye, who lost her daughter
Jennifer in 2002 at the age of 22, suffered the guilt and shame almost all
good parents go through in the aftermath of losing a child to drugs.
In this book, Kaye talks about the journey she and her daughter went
through together, and how in the end, nothing she did changed the outcome.
She shares some articles she wrote in the years following her loss to help
people understand what parents go through with a drug-addicted child.
Kaye has also included a number of heart-wrenching writings that
Jennifer gave to her to share with others in hopes that they would read
about her pain and not have her daily struggles of survival. One passage
includes these words of despair and hope:
Dear Addiction,
What have I ever done to you to deserve all this pain and agony?
