JD's Mom was wonderful at the Convention. They've both come a long way.

I love that the US has elected a real person in J D Vance for vice president A man who rose out of a bad situation with such grace and resolve. It’s lovely to know that mother / son are united❤️

She is a great woman. She was a nurse at a detox facility I have been to unfortunately more than once. 95 days sober!

No one has perfect parents. Only God is perfect.
This mom is brave and does not shy away from being accountable.
JD Nance is still in the process of healing.There is forgiveness in relationship.
But the scars remain.

[maryannjensen]

God bless her for being a overcomer, may she remain well an a believer in Jesus christ where all our help comes from. Hallelujah

She faced it and took responsibility for what happened and didn't try to deny it. I admire her for that. That takes strength. Maybe she couldn't be that mom back then, but she can be now. Good for them.😊

I like the way she said it’s from a child’s viewpoint. Her son live it as a child and that was his childhood. I’m glad they are close now and she owns up to her responsibility.

Am a Librarian and love his books but this memoir hit me and love to watch the movie .❤❤

[Sassyglbeauty]

As a mom who went through my own addictions, I admire her. It’s hard enough to face the guilt of the pain you’ve caused in private. But, to have some of the worst moments of your life on display for the world and not trying to belittle or downplay the real pain you’ve caused in caused is a beautiful thing.

Ms Beverly - i used to live in Middletown (now in Hamilton) - my son is moving to finally a new house he had built close to the high school - lived on central down the street from the bbq place. Voted for jd and proudly voting for him again.
If i ever get the chance i would love to say hello to you and your family. You're all in my prayers

[HS-lqxx]

She represents a lot of people in this country and hopefully will inspire many to go on your journey of sobriety. I wasn’t an addict but was married to one so I can relate to the pain. I long ago forgave him however it did cost him his marriage.

[lindadean]

I love the fact that you bought so many of his books that is a great Mom. So thankful you overcame addiction in your life. I have had many love ones that has had countless addictions.
