Tenacity by Julie Rose
The two true life stories contained in Tenacity span decades -- and two worlds, Australia and Britain. Told through the painful words of mothers Julie Rose and Marilyn Cowell (as recorded by her daughters, Michelle and Sarah), this compelling read has no sugar coating as it takes you through Julie's and Marilyn's struggle to get their sons off drugs ? and the tragedies that ensue. These stories highlight the harrowing fact that addiction can happen to anyone and can strike even the best of families. Powerful and hard hitting, this must read serves as an information and education tool for both young people and parents, a lesson not to be ignored.
We are three ordinary women from Swindon that got together to write our story Tenacity. I am Julie Rose, born in Australia. I work for a large company advising on Mortgages. Michelle Cowell and Sarah Cowell are sisters, the daughters of Marilyn Cowell who died before her story could be told. Michelle is a carer and Sarah works for a book company in customer services. Three years of hard work, a lot of research and commitment, through personal tragedy -- and Tenacity was born. Since finishing the book we have appeared in the local newspaper, the 'Oxford Mail', the 'Sunday Express' and a Dutch newspaper.
