Omah's Story: A Grandmother's Battle for Family and Sobriety

So, for those of you who don't know that you know- and this has taken a lot of courage- for Omah to do what she's done for the past year and nine months- yeah, I have duct tape on my wonder woman cape.
What happens when a grandmother steps up to the plate in the face of addiction? In this episode of 'Courage to Hope', host Tony Lagreca sits down with Omah, a resilient grandmother who found herself caring for her three young grandchildren after their mother fell into addiction. Omah's journey is one of strength, determination, and unwavering love.
She opens up about the trials of navigating the child welfare system, the hurdles of parenting young children, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with advocating for her family's well-being. Balancing work, childcare, and her own sobriety, Omah shares how she found hope and support in her family and faith. Tony and Omah also dive into the broader impact of addiction on families and the critical role of support networks.
Through personal anecdotes and heartfelt discussions, this episode highlights the power of resilience and the importance of raising awareness and advocating for recovery resources. Omah's story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible and that support systems are vital in finding strength and hope.
