I wonder what goes through someone's mind when they sell a substance that could take another person's life.
Is it just about the money?
Do they ever wonder who is on the other end?
Someone's son. A mother of three. A college student. A father who promised his children he'd be home.
And what about the families?
The mother who keeps calling a phone that will never be answered again.
The father who wonders what he could have done differently.
The friends who still read old messages because that's all they have left.
To anyone who has lost someone to an overdose: What is one thing you wish the world understood about your loss?
We're listening.
