A 23-year-old son of a co-worker of mine died a few weeks ago from a fetanyl overdose. He was taking what he thought was a "recreational drug", not realizing it was laced with fetanyl. It was one of the most horrific wakes I have ever been to because he was celebrating the opening of a business that he started with his older brother. His older brother took the same drug that night but got lucky.

People who take seemingly harmless recreational drugs need to realize that they are playing Russian roulette with their bodies.

This is also what gets me. Come on — don’t these morons read the news? Why do they keep doing drugs of any kind, knowing full well what’s going on? No one is standing there forcing them to start it up — some sort of fault and blame needs to start lying with the users.

I have an old friend from high school - their beautiful daughter who had everything in the world going for her decided to take opioid pills from friends. Now, mind you, this was a Barbie doll beautiful girl, a university cheerleader, ended up with a masters degree but eventually succumbed to a fentanyl poisoning. But, WHY did this girl start this all up in the first place??? Mom and Dad are on fire blaming the people who “murdered” her daughter — I feel for them, but her daughter made the decision to ingest the substance. Why — she was smart. She was from a top notch close and wonderful family. She knew, but she did it anyway!!

At some point we need to say to our young people — you start, you are responsible for the ending. And nowadays, the ending isn’t good and is risky even if you ingest marijuana ...so stop it already!!!
