How do you cope when you wake up one day and learn that your son is a heroin addict? No one is immune to crisis, regardless of the details. Yet, even without challenges, everyday life can push us to the edge. I experienced both—and figured out the only way to deal with it was 15 minutes at a time. During my crisis, a system evolved, one that worked for everything, and still does, to this day. Join me—I’ll teach you. We’ll laugh (yes, laugh!), learn, and make life better—15 minutes at a time. ~ Mary Fran Bontempo
