We're losing lives of our precious youth. Marijuana, safe drug can't get addicted to. Well, I don't want to tell my son, or I don't want them to think that I believe they use. Go, ride your bike down the roof into the pool. Parents, if you're doing it in the home or teachers are doing it at the school, how nice would it be if you received a letter from your school every day warning you about fentanyl overdose?
When was the last time you checked your email for a school notification? For many parents in Mesa, Arizona, these emails are a daily routine. But while COVID-19 updates flood their inboxes, a far deadlier threat is quietly taking more lives—fentanyl overdoses. Host Brock Bevell of 'Chase The Vase' takes a hard look at this alarming trend and asks the tough questions: Why aren't parents being informed about fentanyl dangers as rigorously as they are about COVID-19?
In this eye-opening episode, Brock shares real stories from Arizona emergency rooms where teens, unaware of the fentanyl laced in other drugs like meth and cocaine, are overdosing at an alarming rate. Dr. Arya Chowdhury, an ER doctor, paints a grim picture of hospitals overwhelmed by these cases. Brock emphasizes the urgent need for parents to educate themselves and their kids about the signs of fentanyl overdose.
He passionately advocates for having Narcan or Naloxone on hand as a life-saving measure. As the episode unfolds, Brock announces an upcoming concert aimed at raising awareness about addiction, mental health, and suicide prevention. This episode is a wake-up call for every parent and concerned citizen. Tune in to understand why knowing the symptoms of a fentanyl overdose could save a life.
