Description
Heartache to Hope is written by Melinda Edwards, who has an intense history of dealing with traumatic issues. Written inside begins with domestic violence and ends with the hope that others can relate and understand that through heartache, hope can triumph. Even through poetry, a story is told and can help through so many social ills. During times of distress, drug use and abuse can become quite an issue. Children suffer the brunt of so many of these issues. I know I have been through the process of healing, as I have also had to heal through the trenches of depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder, as well as more diagnoses. My hope with Heartache to Hope is that I want others to know there is hope and healing when a coming to terms occurs.

Person
I have written Heartache to Hope as a way to express many social issues that I have personally been through. I have been through domestic violence, deal with mental health issues and have had turmoil in relationships that have made other issues more prevalent. By going through such things as abortion, drug abuse, mental illness and domestic violence it is what qualifies me to move forward in trying to heal. I currently reside in Michigan, but have lived in many other areas. I am the mother of four and help with my three grandsons. I also have a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work.
