Depression Cookies is acoming of age story woven around the heart of family triumph. It is told fromtwo distinct vantage points, middle-aged mother, Abby, and her teenagedaughter, Krista.
Abby is buckling under the weight of a husband who is climbing the corporate ladder, threedaughters each with their own unique needs, a mother who is going off the deepend and family health issues. As she is meeting everyone else's needs, her ownkeep surfacing. She feels she is losing parts of herself daily and doesn't knowhow to handle the stress and conflict. All she truly wants is a little magic inher life.
