The author was born in 1954 as Lorraine Linda Callender. Her father, Denzil, worked at a glass plant and farmed. This left a lot of farming chores for her mother, Laurella (Marie), Lorraine and her two brothers. She was pretty sheltered from alcohol, cigarettes and drugs. She married at eighteen. Philip Busch drank heavily as a teen. He quit before they were married. He was very abusive, now she understands he was a dry drunk. They had two children and that marriage dissolved. She married Arthur Hurrelbrink Jr., he too, had been a heavy teen-drinker. He had quit drinking two years before they married. She had seven more children. He had a drink with his brother one night -- all night long. The addiction had him again. She knew nothing about alcoholism or about co dependencies and thought he just didnt love her. Shortly after he went to rehab, they were getting their life back together. However, cancer claimed him at age of forty. Two years later she met R------{R---) G---- at college. She married R---.
