In 2010, Rodney and Alana were making preparations for their tenth wedding anniversary, a milestone that also marked ten years as a blended family. Making the decision to marry a man with three young boys was not difficult, but getting her new sons to love her was. While Alana was determined (sometimes too much so) to create a new, happy family, the journey was not without its challenges. No matter how hard she tried, her eldest continued to act out, bringing up past hurts from her childhood. Then, while writing her memoir about her own journey to adulthood, their family was dealt an even more devastating blow. After their eighteen-year-old prodigal son rejected his family, he was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer. This is the account of the spiritual journey that restored him, and brought healing to the whole family. Love is a Catalyst is an inspiring, personal story of love and reconciliation.
