Today's Topic: Shauna Gregory presents her compelling story as the parent of a child with challenges, grandmother raising grandchildren, and her lifelong struggle. Her soon-to-be-published book TIFINES SONG will focus on family survival when a child's challenging behaviors take over. In this series, she will introduce you to her world. She will speak about the feeling of helplessness when you feel like no one in the world understands you. How mental illness affects everyone around you. How her Tifine sucked the life out of her and how she became both humbled and empowered throughout her journey. Get your tissues ready! You will need them.
