It was just amazing, just amazing, sad, very sad, very tragic, but at the same time very happy. There was support, you know, excitement. All of these lives were cut short from this disease, you know, but at the same time they left behind all these families and people that love them and that are living and remembering them, you know, like dedicating the things that we do you know to them.
Steve and Megs take you on an emotional journey in this episode of 'Recovery World' as they attend an overdose awareness walk. This event is deeply personal for Megs, as it's in memory of Albert, her son's father, who tragically passed away from an accidental overdose. The walk is a poignant mix of sorrow and solidarity, with countless photos of those lost to addiction lining the path. Yet, amid the tears, there's an overwhelming sense of community and support.
Steve and Megs open up about the far-reaching impact of addiction on families, the importance of recovery, and the harsh reality of overdose. They also delve into the significance of remembering those who have passed and the role of support in finding hope amidst grief. Megs shares her ongoing work on articles about medication-assisted treatment and balancing motherhood with recovery, while Steve talks about his own continuous journey to stay sober.
This episode is a heartfelt reflection on loss, love, and the unyielding spirit of those fighting for a better life. Whether you're on a similar path or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a touching perspective on the importance of community and resilience.
