Overview

Have you felt lost and hurt thinking that your problems were so big that they

have. While going through trials such as sickness, death and dealing with a
mother who used drugs, he found his strength in the love of his grandmother.
His grandmother taught him that prayer changed things. A Hole in My Heart
is set in the author�s home-town of East St. Louis. This book addresses the
impact that drugs have on the entire family, especially the children.
