“Writing Saving My Sister was by far the most difficult yet meaningful and rewarding experience of my life,” comments
author Nicole Woodruff. “After losing my sister, Amanda, to a fentanyl overdose in June 2019, I was determined to make
her story matter and bring meaning to this horrible tragedy. So many families lose loved ones to this disease but often
suffer in silence or feel ashamed to speak up due to addiction’s stigma. My goal with this book is to reduce this stigma,
bring greater awareness to these stories, and ultimately help people in similar situations to mine know they are not
alone,” continues Woodruff.”
