Another life was lost to Fentanyl. Evan was in active recovery. He was at a sober living facility when he died. He'd probably been sober for some time and lost his tolerance. He probably took a pill or half a pill. He may or may not have known it had Fentanyl in it. His Mama has now lost two sons to opioid addiction.

Happy 1 year of sobriety to this young man , my son, Aidan Fayard!

I’d like to say that I had no doubts! I’d like to say that a year ago, I expected to be celebrating today. But, unlike every other achievement of his I’ve shared publicly over the years be it academic, athletic, or even a birthday, I absolutely did not expect to be celebrating on 11/21/23. I expected to be in mourning.

A year ago, I WAS mourning - pre-mourning actually. I fully expected him to be dead by now. A lot of mamas are mourning today because of Fentanyl or other drugs.

Fentanyl only has a 9% recovery rate and the amount of Fentanyl that can fit on the tip of a needle is fatal. It’s 100x stronger than morphine and MUCH easier to access. Actually, most kids try it the first time unwittingly because it’s in 1 of 6 drugs bought outside of a pharmacy. And, 1 in 6 of those have a fatal dose. Every 5 minutes another soul dies.

I can’t say that Aidan has won this battle or that he’s fully recovered. In all reality, Fentanyl addiction has a 0% recovery rate. The 9% are just lucky to have stayed alive long enough to develop lifelong habits and strategies that help them fight the monster that is addiction every day for the remainder of their days.

So, here’s to Aidan’s first 365 days of fighting under his belt. We will celebrate today, because we don’t know what is waiting for us tomorrow.

We are so proud of The University of Southern Mississippi for taking proactive steps that will help ensure the safety of their students and staff.

Every 5 minutes another soul dies of Fentanyl poisoning. Just last week, in one Gulf Coast traffic stop, enough illicit fentanyl was confiscated to kill over 30 million people.

Kids are dying from Fentanyl found in all manner of drugs- anything from fake Adderall and Xanax to gummies and pain pills. Experimentation as part of being a young adult is no longer something they will survive. Please educate yourself and your kids.

Thank you, USM!

Thanks, The University of Southern Mississippi
