I know people can change, I know, if they have the opportunity, that they can make it right.
When Theo Krzywicki lost his fiancée to an overdose, he turned his grief into a mission to save others. As a Los Angeles firefighter and paramedic, Theo saw firsthand the devastating effects of drug overdoses. Determined to make a difference, he founded End Overdose, a non-profit dedicated to preventing overdose deaths through education and harm reduction tools like Fentanyl test strips and NARCAN.
In this episode of 'Henry's Uncle', Theo sits down with host Erik Kilgore to share his powerful story of recovery and resilience. Sober for 11 years, Theo discusses the critical need for accessible resources in addiction treatment and how harm reduction tools can save lives. He also delves into the impact of social media on drug use and the alarming rise of fentanyl in the US.
Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just looking to understand more about addiction, Theo's insights offer a compelling look at how knowledge and compassion can combat this crisis.
