    For the Love of a Son

    A Memoir of Addiction, Loss, and Hope

    Scott Oake

    This raw and candid memoir tells how Oake and his wife Anne did their best at supporting their son Bruce who struggled with ADHD and eventually with an opioid addiction that led to his accidental overdose at the age of 25. The parents and their younger son, Darcy, turned this loss into a way to help thousands of others by establishing the Bruce Oake Recovery Centre, staffed almost entirely by addicts and alcoholics in recovery.
