    The scream of a mother finding her child dead in bed is horrifying to hear
  • My son died from fentanyl poisoning 1.21.2024. That tiny pill not only killed my 17 year but killed his entire family. We are forever broken. Rest in peace my beloved. you will be forever loved and missed.
  • The fact that this poignant documentary has just 30K views is criminal. This should be shown in schools, together with the video of that poor mother, as she finds her son dead from a fentanyl overdose… so incredibly sad.

    This mum lost her only son tragically and now she is a mother to many by possably saving their lives via the awesome work she does...educating kids about the dangers of this deadly drug.

    At this very moment my son is addicted to this drug. He has been to rehab twice. Stays clean for a few weeks and then back to the streets to get his fix. I tell my son just one pill will kill you, and he says, not me. I hate it when my phone rings, is this the call that no parent wants to get. I keep praying that my son will stop.
  • This is the saddest thing ive seen! I lost my only son and lost my only daughter!! My heart is forever broken and i will never be the same

    Part of the problem is young people think it will never happen to them. Lost my oldest grandchild to this! It obviously was not an intended death. It is so hard to get over this. His mother and sisters are hurting so bad, as are we. We miss him everyday!

    Thank you to Glenn and Texas picture documentaries!!! I have a 22 yr old son in rehab for Fentanyl right now. I already lost my 19 yr old stepson 4 yrs ago. This HAS TO STOP!!! By the way, we have 4 kids who are NOT addicted to anything. I don't know what makes one use and not the other but if you EVER find yourself complacent thinking it could NEVER be your child, think again!!! I wish every county in America would do what Glenn is doing!!!
  • I lost my brother in 2012 over an overdose. This is so sad. And only getting worse.😟
  • My son died at the age of 36 a year ago cause of death fentanyl toxicity. The person who gave him this never was charged even though his phone messages did but they say you have to prove what he took was from this person . The drug dealer knew he would never be charged with my sin death . Was death worth getting High I’m sure now my son would say no . The pain is unbearable

    Five to seven minutes before the person stops breathing according to First Responders no wonder people are dropping like flies. Everyone is affected by this drug crisis. TY for being this video ❤️🙏.

    All these ppl are HEROES, the parents, families who share their stories, the filmmaker who did such a great job, I’m Canadian, I’ve watched a few already and I will be showing my 13 yr old nephew very soon. I don’t want to forget the incredible Dr who created the program to catch the drug dealer online. All of you are heroes. Thank God for all of you.
  • @belm3243
    I have young kids and I feel so afraid watching these stories.I am so sorry for you all. Love from a mum in 🇬🇧
  • The worst part is the cops aren't going after the people who gave them the pills!
  • @Marygranny
    I’m so very sorry for your loss. May God heal your heart.🙏🙏🙏🙏
  • @carlagray7563
    I came across Texas Production and watching I think just about all the stories. As my heart broke I learned something new with every story. I have a 19 and 15 year old so it really hit home. I did more research and finally was ready to have a real conversation about fentanyl very specifically as I’ve talked about drugs with them since they were young as I lost my sister to a Oxy OD 10 years ago. I was very contrived on how I wanted to address this topic with them. It was a successful conversation whereas at the end I thanked them for listening and staying engaged and my 19yr old son said “you went about it the right way mom”. Point of me writing this is to tell all those parents/families you have helped me and my family with the knowledge or being woke about this very important topic. Thank you and please know I pray for your families as I do my own. I will NEVER say never.
