- A mother shares her story of losing her 19 year old son to fentanyl poisoning.
After losing her 19 year old son, Cameron, to fentanyl poisoning, Becky felt the urgency to warn others of this dangerous drug. She has taken the pain of losing her son and has turned it into a passion for raising awareness about the dangers of fentanyl through her non-profit organization, A Change For Cam. Becky’s journey has taken her to DEA Headquarters in our Nation's Capital, the Texas Capitol as well as schools, communities, and organizations across the state of Texas, all in an effort to help save lives. If you’d like to know more, please visit www.AChangeForCam.org.
Naloxone, the active ingredient in 4mg Narcan and higher dose 8mg Kloxxado, along with many generic versions, can reverse an opioid overdose if administered quickly enough. Some areas have Naloxone available for free. Google it.

"Kids need to learn from their mistakes, not die from them" that, right there, is an incredibly powerful statement. My heart hurts for your loss. For the loss of our children's lives.
they didnt use to, this is new
some mistakes are simply deadly
@@JoveSpell ding ding
Bad mom. Making excuses
@@ab8588wtffffffff. You’re weird. Gross.
I just lost my boyfriend of 5 years to the same thing. I was pregnant and lost the baby 2 months after he passed also his mom had passed a year before him from Lupus. We were so excited for the baby I was in nursing school we had just got a house. We were so so happy I hadn’t seen him so happy after losing his mom. And he was just gone I quit school and work. I used the last of our money to get his car and I barely started using it after sitting for 3 months. But I’m finally trying to get myself together after this nightmare. I can’t function and don’t have much family money or help but I’ll figure it out soon 🖤 I am so sorry I just want to hug you. The pain is unbearable
We have a private Facebook group made up primarily of those who have shared their stories and those who want to. There’s a lot of support there. If you send us an email, I can reply with an invitation to join if you’d like.
@@TexasPicturesThat is wonderful...I hope she joins...thank you for all that you do. Much love 💛
I'm so sorry for what you're going through. Just keep your head up and keep fighting you'll get through it. Just think about what your future could be and keep striving for your goals.
Praying for you❤️🤞
God bless...praying for you sweety.🙏
My kids are 22,18 and 16. This scares me so bad, no matter how much I preach to them, being a recovering addict I pray I go before them. I can’t imagine the pain this mom is feeling 😢
Teach them that suffering is the price of existence, true happiness is rare and shouldn't be chased as a lifestyle.
Continue to pray and teach them about the dangers of all drugs. It only takes one time to get a deadly dose of medication, prescribed or bought illegally. Don’t hide the truth from them honesty is the key. Also learn about Narcan, the pharmacies in Illinois give it away free. I gave a box to my daughter when she went away to school. Her dad and I explained the dangers of drugs all of her life. We also decided as a collective to send a box w/ her as a preventative measure. On Valentine’s Day she went to a school party, couple kids passed out, she called 911, paramedics were sent, they had to administer 6 doses of Narcan to certain kids. It was at that moment she decided to carry the Narcan with her daily bc it’s a life or death situation. She also changed her major to Forensics because she wants to make a positive difference in ppl’s lives.
My children are 21,20,17 this scares me so bad because I’m a recovering addict i been clean for 7 years drug abuse is in my family as well I literally pray everyday that my children don’t get involved with drugs my son smokes weed every day I’m afraid that one day he’s going to get something that’s laced with fentanyl this is scary asf rest in paradise for all the children and adults that passed from this dangerous drugs
@@moongoddess238 Congratulations on your sobriety. That is a daily accomplishment. Well wishes from an “Internet stranger” in Chicago
I can’t imagine this woman’s heartbreak. Her son , Cameron, had so much going for him but that drug did it.
You talk to them. I’m starting young with my two seven year olds. I show them these stories from time to time and they ask questions. I explain to them it’s not the same anymore for teens who want to experiment. Not even close.
Easy for me as an old man to sit back and think, "Well, he should have known better." But then I remember the days of my
youth, so many years ago, so many mistakes made, so many foolish decisions. "There, but for the grace of God..."
Rest in Peace, Cameron.
🙏
tru8e, but it wasn't as much death then with o d
The thing about it is these young people are not OD’ing, they are being poisoned by taking just one pill😢. Poisoned!
@@be4202who forced him to buy the pills?
Amen
What an articulate compassionate mother and woman.
So incredibly grateful for her message to others. Her words are powerful and she’s a hero!
@@kellieprestidge9346 thank you
And beautiful inside n out. May God give her peace! 🙏
I lost my 22 year old son last year from a brain bleed. My other son tried to get him back. It’s horrible. My condolences to this family. I am so sorry.
Man, when she said that the other mom lost her son also, my heart.
“i’d rather have my kid here”… heartbreaking. She looks like a lovely person…💕
My deepest condolences to both families…RIP 🕊🤍😞
I watched Tucker’s story first so as she began to speak about it my heart dropped, I knew she was going to say Cameron was the funeral they mentioned in that video. Incredibly heartbreaking
Losing a child, no matter their age or circumstances, is the most painful, depressing thing any parent can experience. Prayers for all these families.
My brother and I both overdosed on fentanyl laced heroin and he died but I survived. Now I'm in recovery and I'm learning how to cope with childhood trauma without numbing myself out. Not a day goes by that I don't think of and miss my brother. I hope he's finally found the peace that eluded him in life.
RIP CHRIS
8/4/1972-9/9/18💔
My heart hurts for you. I'm certain your brother is at peace , they'll be signs from him letting you know. My prayers are for you to make peace w what broke you down, and for you to live a beautiful life. For him to smile down on, that will be his real rest. ❤ blessings
I hope you are doing well. 🙏🙏
Awful to lose a brother....but just keep looking a head. What would he want you to do? To live and be ok. Hope you are steady.
I drive by Camerons awareness billboard everyday going to work..❤😢
So sorry for the loss of your handsome sweet son. May he RIP🙏🏻 Same I went to pick up my 22 yr old son to his apartment to surprise him with a late breakfast before he went to work. Had his 9 and 7 yr old little brothers and 6 yr old sister with me. Police kicked his door in he was gone from a Xanax pill that had a lethal dose of Fentanyl 💔😭😭 Life will never be the same
Oh no! How absolutely awfully heartbreaking! With the siblings in tow? UGH. 💔 💔💔No matter how you spin it, you meant the very best in coming to surprise him with the siblings on hand, but this turned out to be was the worst case scenario! 🥲
Can’t even imagine how you handled it; bless your heart! May your heart continue its healing journey and may your son RIP!
🙏💔🥀 I'm Soo sorry😞
I’m so sorry for the loss of your son. Mine overdosed and had the ambulance kick bathroom door down. He wasn’t breathing. 4 cans of Narcan got a pulse and breathing again. He was in ICU and in coma then to now vegetive state. He cant hold his head up nor eat. There are times he will track me with his eyes so, he maybe starting to become semi conscious. He’s now moved out of ICU to another floor in hospital. My son also took a Xanax laced with feytnal. I’m thankful to GOD Jesus Christ he’s alive, even if he has severe brain damage from lack of oxygen to the brain. I’m so sorry for the loss of your son too. Even to get your child into a rehab is a 6 months wait here in Oregon. The rehab said, since the border has been wide open, fetynal that came from China shipped in by cartel is killing off our youth. There are so many young people addicted to it that there just aren’t enough beds in rehab to help them. I tried to get my son in since he was addicted to Xanax that the doctor put him on at 17. He went to rehab for that. Yet, still bought a Xanax pill off someone laced with fentanyl. These kids are playing Russian roulette when taking just one pill that will drop them quick! I heard my son drop to the ground when he went to the bathroom to take a shower. It’s quick. My heart breaks for all families. Addiction is a monster. Some get addicted just trying the first time if pre disposed to addiction.
@@1conservativegrlthat's so frightening. Glad he made it. Sending you all my love.
You are a natural storyteller, Becky, thank you for sharing yours and I'm so very sorry Cameron was poisoned and taken from you. It's crazy, this drug is killing our youth, our future. I pray that it will be stopped.
She’s a loser mom.
What a gut wrenching story! As a mother, I can’t imagine the pain, and sorrow of this dear lady’s loss!
i watched tuckers story before seeing this one and while watching cameron’s story when his mom said the part about the funeral my heart dropped. i didn’t know he(the dealer) was literally at a funeral for someone he killed. prayers for healing to all these family’s.
I read the dealer was sentenced to 13 years in prison it's in tuckers video comment section.
No one understands what it's like to struggle with addiction, unless you've been through it. People think you're a bad person or just don't love your family, your children or yourself enough to stop. But that right there just shows how people don't get it. NO ONE wants to live their life like that. It's so much bigger than that. Im so sorry for your loss. Just know your not alone.
8 months sober today!!! I’m so sorry for your family’s loss!!!!
It is because of this channel and moms like you that i have had many many hard talks with all three of my kids about fentanyl and just because something is marked and stamped and says it is one thing on google it is not....kids have it so hard with online bullying on twitter, fb, and in person. I am so grateful of people like you, you are saving lives but i am so sorry yours had to be a casualty of this horrid drug pandemic. Sending love and prayers from Oregon.
Thank you for sharing.
Educate them on narcan and the life saving opportunity it gives. Check your local laws to see if you can get it for free without a prescription and if it’s legally allowed for others to possess
@@repunched106 one of the videos in the fentanyl poisoning series is about naloxone, the active ingredient in Narcan, and how to use it. We’re also developing an animated short, that tells about the importance of naloxone.
Same here. I show these videos to my 19 and 27 y.o.
@@TexasPictures thank you for everything you're doing to try to battle this ugly problem that is ruining so many lives...
She sounds like a wonderful mother and a person. Sorry for your loss.
Yess and such a story teller I feel so bad for her loss😢😢
One of these videos popped up in my feed a couple of weeks ago, and I've watched a lot of them now. It's interesting how often COVID is mentioned as at least somewhat of a factor in these stories. Once the everyday life is forced to slow down, all of the anxieties and depression that have been repressed seem to come to the surface. My sympathies go out to all of the parents.
What do you mean covid? Like it's responsible for the deaths as well?
@@curtissleypen9395You read that wrong. She was talking about when Covid started and how life slowed things down for everyone.
I am so sorry for this mother to lose her child. I am so sorry for this family to lose a loved one.
But what’s also important: I’m so sorry for the officers to go into the apartment, seeing the dead Cameron and then have to tell the already „knowing“ parents that their child is dead. This must and I guess is the most unfavorite moment of an officer and I simple am so sorry for all of Law Enforcement when things like this happen.
Thanks again for giving Cameron and his mother a voice that can be heard and MUST be heard.
With sad regards from Germany, Philipp
I don’t understand these kids buying, what they think are prescription drugs, on the internet from complete strangers. Makes absolutely so sense to me.
I don't understand
those that are SELLING them online
(or ANYWHERE)!!!!!!
They aren’t complete strangers though most times. Most of the time it’s a peer or someone a friend introduces you to. The bigger question is why are prescription drugs so addictive that people have to resort to street dealers to satisfy their need. If these drugs are so chemically altering, changing the brain forever, why aren’t we looking into alternative methods of medication that are less addictive and stopping the production of these opiates all together…
@@barbi3fr3sh06 You do understand, they are not buying and getting addicted to prescription drugs, they are buying pills that are being sold as prescription drugs that are actually just a fentanyl pill made to look like a prescription drug. Same color, same shape, same markings. They are getting addicted to the fentanyl until it kills them.
barbi3.. these young people aren’t starting out with prescription opiates, they are experimenting with street drugs and get addicted to them. (In some cases yes legitimately prescribed opiates can lead to addiction but There is and always will be a need for narcotics for severe pain from a myriad of causes, not just cancer. Effective pain relief is just as important as antibiotics or any other life saving medications.
They look for something to numb their pain. People have always done it, either through alcohol, opium or other local substances. It just didn't kill them after one consumtion
Love Cameron's pic that was used for the thumbnail. Hugs to his mum. As a parent of a teen, I know we can only talk to our kids and hope and pray they make right choices. I pray this mum finds it in her heart to accept all that's happened.
I love it too! Lot of his pics show him being silly happy.
I’m so sorry for the loss of her son. I’m grateful for her courage to share about this tragedy so she can save others. God bless her and her family and friends.
I watch all of this videos and it breaks my heart for all the needless loss. I’m a grand mother in Tasmania Australia and even though I’m so far from the USA I still share these stories here, because eventually this evil will make its way down here, sadly. I’m trying to educate my 16 year old grand daughter to just say NO to any substances. I’m a 30 year sober alcoholic. 🥰
So sad. 😭😭 Thank you for sharing your story. ❤
These stories are helping people! All these lives have changed mine
I'm sorry for your loss. He left you with some Great Memories. I too lost a nephew to this fentanyl devil. GOD Bless you and your family.
I lost my nephew also
I am so glad that these fentanyl-laced pills were not around when I was a teenager.
Cameron sounds like he was an amazing young man. My heart breaks for his mom and family. I pray he is RIP 🙏
Thank you Becky for talking about families that have had no resolution. In my granddaughter Victoria's case there was no investigation. And now we will never know if it was her boyfriend that was responsible. Since he passed in March of Fentanyl poisoning as well. It is so sad all the way around. And families are being left broken and forever changed. 💔
I watched your interview and am so very sorry for your loss. I wonder why your case and so many others aren’t investigated!😢
I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. I pray that the Lord comforts you and your family. 🙏🏾. It’s mind blowing to me how few cases are investigated. I had a neighbor overdose on fentanyl, but was revived with naloxone. When the officer arrived on scene, my husband asked if they were going to investigate and the officer said they don’t investigate overdoses. I find that immoral and nonsensical.
@brandip77 thank you. It is so disturbing. I thank God I am stronger today. I will continue in this journey to try to prevent another family from this devastating pain that we live with every single day.
My kids are 27 & 29 and I still constantly remind them that drugs aren’t the same as when I was young or even when they were. Cocaine isn’t safe, pills that didn’t come from a pharmacy even weed is being laced with fentanyl. My kids don’t have drug issues but I’m not blind to them maybe taking something once & awhile and it terrifies me. I can only pray that my speeches actually get through to them.
It terrifies me too with my grandchildren!
Yes it’s really sad and scary. You think you’re just getting a pill of whatever the person says it is (which is bad enough) but it turns out to be poison. Nobody deserves to die this way and my heart goes out to all of these families. ❤️
My brother and sister in law are well off and attend church regularly. They were so busy patting themselves on the back for being holier than thou parents that they missed every sign that their youngest daughter was in serious trouble. They told her "why can't you just act happy". They were lucky. After 2 serious overdoses and multiple suicide attempts that resulted in hospital stays...once in ICU, their daughter went to a treatment center that really helped. She is well now and thriving but it could easily gone the other way. Never say not my kid. I was raised in the 70s and had a somewhat privileged childhood. My parents had NO IDEA what I was getting into. They had their heads in the sand. The Air Force straightened me out thank God!
Same here. I grew up privileged and my parents were clueless to my experimentations. Luckily it was a phase for me but many kids it becomes addiction. Education is so important. It’s not like the 70s 80s or 90’s anymore. Fentanyl is everywhere and does not often give 2nd chances. Our country needs to act NOW and deem this a true threat to our country.
@@Pink_143_6 it's crazy how the parents with money think their kids are untouchable!!! I tried to talk to a young family member about fentanyl and her parents got mad!!!! Turns out the kid already knew how to go onto social media and get drugs from strangers!!! Anyone caught selling drugs with fentanyl should be charged as a terrorist because this has become a weapon of mass destruction.
Don't blame the parents at some point around 14 a parent loses their real influence as guardians. And mentors, and they begin to make choices on their own period a child has to agree to follow you into adulthood.
I don't think you should blame the parents for what their child chose to do, especially if they are from a good home. Kids from every type of home get into trouble. People who are genuinely good people with morals often get accused of being "holier than thou" and when something bad happens to their family, instead of them being supported and prayed for, people gloat over it. That's sad and disgusting.
Religiosity gets one nowhere. Of you study the Bible, Jesus didnt care for the "Religious crowd" My brother was a very good kid growing up, straight as an arrow. His issues started when he got staph in his jaw. 8 surgeries later...he had an addiction. He was the last person anyone would think to be a drug addict. It can happen to anyone. Glad to hear the Air Force lit a path for you. Thank you for your service. It's very scary that we have borders that are so porous that these pills are flooding this country. I blame China . They are the ones supplying the cartels with synthetic opiates.
Cameron DEFINITELY had a unique personality. The story you told about how his curly hair flopped forward, when he entered the room and would say What's up is priceless. It made me laugh.His photo made me smile. But the loss of Cameron is tragic and heart-breaking. My sincerest condolences to you and your family.🙏🙏🙏
Cameron sounded like a wonderful funny kid. Such a tragic story, especially with her friends son story as well. Thanks for continuing to share these stories. I live in DFW Texas area and would love to get a speaker to come talk to my kids high school about fentanyl. I worry everyday that my kids will ignore my warnings.
I just called my son and had to tell him. He's 33 and he reminded me he's not a kid and i told him it's a problem for everyone so beware. This is so tragic and my heart is broken. Life can be so hard. Dear God please help us all. Thank you for telling your story.
Tell him my 34 yr old son just died( 1 month ago). Get sober before it's too late!
I have already started crying.💔
Mom nailed it. "NO CLUE." RIP Cameron.
Losing a child no matter how is like nothing else. You lose a huge part of yourself and never get over that loss. I lost my youngest son last year to fentanyl. Prayers for this mother and the many others who have lost a child.
Sorry for your lost. You appear to be a member of a club that is getting too large. Much more attention and resources need to be on this. If it weren't for this series I would've not understood how large this is. Even though it might be painful to tell the stories they do make an impact. This series should be in schools.
I also lost my son November 15, 2022. He was 25 years old. This doesn't discriminate. It takes everyone & anyone. More and more are dying on a daily basis. This unwanted club we're all in now is so very massive. It's taken our children & leaves us a shell of who we were. I'm already dead too, my body just needs to realize it & catch up. So many broken women & men longing for their baby.
@@moniquebalmer9390 so very true. Broken 💔
This story is worthy of adapting into a film. A young, promising child dies from purchasing a fake pill through social media. The mom investigates and teams up with another mom whose child also later dies at the hands of this seller they're tracking. Then they find out the seller is a young teen himself. Other young customers come forward and now the teen is in federal prison. Wow. 17:28-17:31 A powerful statement on the dangers of experimenting with drugs.
Why are some sellers prosecuted but other cases don’t even get investigated when there is even phone history evidence??
Resources vary from place to place sadly
@@be4202 depends on the laws of the state. Some states are passing strict laws related to fentanyl possession and dealing while others are not. Many states have very relaxed drug laws and enforcement.
So, sorry for the loss of your precious son because of this horrific drug. 😢
I’ve watch many of these stories and of all of them, this one got to me. I’m so sorry for the loss of Cameron. It sounds like he was a wonderful young man. Thank you for sharing your story and helping other parents. I pray for many happy moments for you. Embrace them. Cameron would want that ❤
Wow this kid sounds so much like me it’s frightening. Thankfully the worst my addiction got was marijuana, but I’m sure I could’ve ended up in his position if a few things went differently. RIP
Did you get clean from marijuana? @1800LUNATIC
I've heard of a story where marijuana was laced. Go to a dispensory if you can or grow your own.
Sending you a massive hug. I’m so sorry. No one should EVER have to go through this. Thank you for sharing. Know that a ton of people are thinking of you. You’re strength is amazing!
If he was diagnosed with anxiety, he should have been able to get a legitimate prescription for Valium in a low dosage, instead of going online looking for meds. Really sad and completely unavoidable.
That’s what I was thinking.
My son was born in 2001 too. I can't fathom him being gone. We are estranged from him, but he is still alive as far as we know. I wouldn't survive this. I know I wouldn't. These parents in these interviews/short docs are absolutely, incredibly strong. Wishing you comfort, peace, joy, and light 💖
Dont give up on your son. Keep trying. Keep telling him how important he is no matter what.
Thank you for speaking out and sharing your sad story.
This is so tragic it's hard to fathom. Terribly sorry for the loss of your son, and the loss of part of your heart.
Thank you for sharing Cam's story. I am glad there are parents strong enough to sit in front of a camera and tough it out. It has to be hard, but I'm sure it is touching someone, somewhere.❤️
rip mama….stay strong. i have 3 small kids. i show this to them all the time. thx for sharing
Don't do drugs
Beautiful lady, well spoken and you can feel her love and pain!
I am so sorry for your loss and Stephanie’s. It takes a lot of courage to do a video like this but you are making a difference in schools and people’s lives by sharing Cameron’s story. May he rest in peace. Wishing you and your family healing.,
I’m very sorry for your loss!! Thank you for giving back and telling your story to save others! People need to know the dangers that are out there now. It’s a different world and we need to keep our kids safe!
I’m sincerely sorry for your immense lost. Word’s can’t comfort such a pain but still be assured thousands of people are feeling and knowing how terrible hurtful this lost is. Stay Strong 😔
Thank you for sharing your story about your son Camron, it was beautiful. You can see his good memories still make you smile, I cannot as mother of twins (24) not having one. You are an amazing mother to be able to share the good and that terrible day. This will forever impact me as a mother,thank you for spreading the words, that we think our children kno (or that invincibility) can happen to anyone. ❤xx
Thank you for sharing Cameron's story with us. You and your Familia are in my thoughts and Prayers. God bless. 🥺🙏🕯️✝️🫶
Thank you for sharing your story in spite of your immeasurable pain. I am confident you are saving lives.
This channel is so powerful. This message needs to be heard over and over. 📣📣💔
Oh my heart. She is so dear and genuine. If she or anyone she knows personally happens to see this, I hope the message of love and support will be relayed. 😔 🙏
This is why we need to emulate Singapore's Anti-Drug Laws: death penalty for traffickers and dealers, heavy sentences for posession, and no plea deals.
Thank you for sharing your tragic and heartbreaking story. I too am the mother of two boys, ages 21 and 22. I am sharing this video with them. Know that Cameron’s story and life, WILL make a difference. ❤
Thank you for your message and courage. Sending you love
I think this one is the saddest one I have watched. Yes many I share in tears with them, this one really really touched me... I am so so sorry for all these people. I live in fear for my great great granddaughters, their are babies, God willing the solid education my family will not know this firsthand!
So sorry for your loss and the loss of Tucker! You are doing a great thing to honor them with your efforts! Bless you❤
Thank you for sharing your story.
his mom really got me…the description was just heartbreaking…may he watch over his mom until they meet again
These stories are heartbreaking, but so important to be told. Keep up the important work you are doing. Love from the UK ❤
This has only happened a couple of times. Way cool when it does. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this story of tragedy. This is the second time I've heard Snapchat being involved. I'm so so sorry losing your beloved son. This story will help others, a lot of kids/ teens experiment with drugs or want the valume to cope, relax whatever. Your story shows how dangerous any pill is that's not from the pharmacy. Grief is the final act of love 💕
Good job Mama’s!!! It’s good you did investigate and get the kid! Very sorry for both of your losses😢❤️🙏🏻
What an incredible Mother! I hope you kept his dog.
Dear mom...your gift of sound communication will save many lives.
I'm truly sorry but Cam is watching over all of you & seeing everything. He'll be there to greet you with his adorable head nod & you'll laugh with & at him once again.
Thank you for all that you do.
Thank you for your great work and for your being such an amazing mother!!
Taking drugs is "A. PERSONAL CHOICE" it's sad these children lost their lives
Parents need to stop making excuses for bad decisions
We need stronger laws that set these 1st degree murder charges for those that sell
It's the fault of the one
BUYING it
Not the one
SELLING it !!!
@Sara The Funny if they knowingly sell tainted drugs, it's the sellers fault.
@@mjanny6330 being 19yo then you should know the difference between right and wrong!!!!
@Sara The Funny in a country where taking pharmaceutical drugs to "relax" and "clam your nerves" is considered good and normal?
@@zainababdullah149 Sara..the not so funny .News Flash they used to put Marijuana dealers in jail..for a long time..this is murdere..
I'm so sorry for your loss. You speaking of your son's humor made me smile. I, too, lost my twenty year old son. He was also very funny. And every time I tried to discipline him as he was growing up, he was of no use because he always made me laugh. I'm pretty sure your son and my son are friends in heaven.
Can't imagine the pain the families feel, absolutely heartbreaking 🙏🏻💜
Thank you
God bless and keep this family !
I just wana say incredible job with bringing awareness. This channel is incredible
Thank you. Grateful for your comment.
I'm watching this with my son. I just talked to my kids about this. Thank you.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. ♥️
This story touched me so much
These are unbelievably impactful stories that should be played in classrooms around the country.
I just really want to say thank uou for sharing uou and Camerom's story. I would really like to think this channel, this platform, the real life people that are really going through this directly or indirectly. Thank you so much to everyone for coming foward and sharing these stories no matter how hard they are or how hard it is to get it out, yous guys are doing the most good by sharing, and educating the rest of us, and showing everyone what can happen if they or someone they love are dabbling or have a drug abuse problem. Times are definitely not like they were when i was growing up experimenting, things were what they were supposed to be then, its rough for this new generation of kids,teens, users, experimenters, like its not just pills, everything is being laced nowadays and your first try of something could be your last try as well. That high people are chasing it could be their last high. Fentanyl is not something so common as to all the kids, or even adults are just fully aware of it, some may have heard of it but dont know what it is or how serious and potentially life threatening it can be. So it's a blessing to have everyone on here be able to educate people just a little more with every story. I have 5 children and i feel better that i now know about this drug and have neen able to educate my children about it also and have to have faith that should any of them try to experiment with drugs that they really keep this knowledge in the front of their minds. I just wish that this can be bigger, nationally, on many platforms so more people, more youth are able to access it, let it come on commercials as a public service announcement, as mandatory viewing on some ads, something i don't know for sure and realize how expensive this all is but people having the knowledge to save multiple lives is priceless! So again thank everyone so much and i will always include everyone in all these stories (as a whole) in my prayers.
Thank you for taking the time to write this. We appreciate it very much.
Thank you for sharing your story. Bless your momma heart. My only child passed the same way. Forever21 Cody's mother
I’m so sorry for your tremendous loss.

Oh. My. God. I have watched both of these corresponding stories… how absolutely tragic. But I appreciate raising awareness about this epidemic.
it makes happy to hear you guys got justice for my grandkids,myself,and my daughters siblings have not got justice for what the person that gave her that one pill.God bless your family and I am so sorry for your loss.
The border must be sealed 100%. The Fentanyl comes from China and goes to big Mexican Cartels who mix it with different fillers and form them into pills that look like Vicodin, Oxycontin, Xanax or any other pill. The pills are so good they can even fool a pharmacist.
The Las Vegas sheriff says that almost 100% of pills sold on the street are laced with Fentanyl.
I will vote for whoever will seal the border shut, I don't care which political party.
Fentanyl is my number one issue. It's killing tens of thousands of our young people every year and it's growing. Most of these kids are good kids who made one bad decision.
Wow so informative. So sorry I lost my son in a different way but I get you. Keep up the good work mom.
Beautiful soul that is gone too soon
I’m sorry for the loss of your son…God Bless You…❤
This got me teary eyed. Rest in peace, sweet Cam.
I am so, so sorry 😢
Your son sounded perfect, full of love and laughter ❤
My son is also depressed at the moment and after watching this, I had to text him and let him know that I love him so much xx
Is he actually depressed? Or has he just been told by someone that he is?

You are an amazing person. I admire you tremendously! God bless you.
The happiest ones r always the ones battling silently when they r alone and left too their thoughts… 😢
So true….
You are a brave and talented lady. You are doing good. You are doing great.
My heart goes out to you mom. I don’t know what I would do in your position. I have no family left except my sister, my 29 yr old son & my 23 yr old daughter. I am so sorry this happened in you life.
