EP 7: How One Fake Pill Can Change Everything: Fentanyl Awareness with Angela King
from Mad Rush with Trisha Addicks · host Trisha Addicks
Angela King is a mother from Atlanta, Georgia, who is using her tragedy to help others. Just eight months ago, her son, Jack O’Kelley, died from taking a pill that he probably thought was just Xanax. It was laced with Fentanyl. She is channeling her grief to help educate others about the genuine dangers of Fentanyl. Fentanyl is here in our world. This drug is not just in the dark alleys of the seedy parts of cities. It is in every town, on every college campus, at sporting events and concerts. It is everywhere. She wants to educate us about how to communicate with our kids about this present danger and how to obtain lifesaving drugs readily available. Her mission is vitally important, and on this episode of MAD RUSH, she and Trisha talk about how you can start saving lives, maybe on your own.
