Take a walk on the Wild Side
by Janet Balcombe
Janet Balcombe never did
have a plan for her life,
but sitting in prison on a
raft of charges including
kidnapping, guns, drugs
and counterfeiting was a
little disappointing.

P–addiction. Grief. Adultery.
Evil. Brokenness. Her life was a
psychotic hybrid of Breaking Bad and Paranormal Activity.
Without divine intervention, things just weren’t going to end well.
But no matter how bad things get, when we reach out to
Jesus Christ, miracles happen.

The most amazing book I have ever read. I couldn’t
put it down and cried when it ended. It changed my life
and I am now back in church. Jaimee Falconer

Janet Balcombe wasn't a planner, but sitting in prison staring at the punk rocker with ALEX tattooed around her neck in neo-nazi script was a little disappointing. The raft of charges included kidnapping, guns, drugs and counterfeiting; if this wasn’t rock bottom it would do until she got there. Years later as she lay on the floor amongst the ruins of her toxic life, incapable of making her baby one more bottle, she knew she had finally arrived.
Where do you go when you hit rock bottom? When you’ve got what you thought would make you happy, and it hasn’t? When the freedom you crave slowly tightens around you like a python, squeezing a little tighter every time you exhale, until the very things that once meant the most no longer mean anything at all. Not even life itself.
