Facing the Opioid Crisis: Stories and Solutions with Darcey and Ed Bisch

The whole system needs to be overhauled. It's not just about Purdue Pharma or the Sackler family; it's about holding everyone accountable for their role in this crisis.
Ever wondered about the real stories behind the opioid crisis? In this episode of 'Recovering Hope', host Mark Marcley sits down with Darcey and Ed Bisch to discuss their personal experiences with addiction and the wider opioid epidemic that has ravaged communities across the nation. The conversation kicks off with a deep dive into Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family's controversial role in exacerbating the crisis.
Ed, an active member of the Facebook group 'Supporters of the Pharmacist', sheds light on ongoing efforts to hold Purdue Pharma accountable. He explains how the company is trying to dodge full responsibility by offering billions for immunity, yet they haven't secured criminal immunity, thanks to the Department of Justice's stance. But it’s not just about pointing fingers at big pharma.
The discussion broadens to the importance of public education on the dangers of opioids and the need for a multi-faceted approach to tackling substance abuse. Accountability is a recurring theme, with Ed emphasizing that everyone involved needs to be held responsible for their part in this crisis. Darcey then takes the spotlight, sharing her heartfelt journey through addiction and recovery.
Her candid account of the hurdles she faced and the support she received serves as a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with similar issues. The episode underscores key points like the necessity of increased accountability, public education, and the power of community support in recovery. Mark Marcley’s heartfelt words, 'we're here to do the best we can to help you or a loved one to know there is hope to end the nightmares of addiction', resonate throughout the episode.
If you're keen to hear more about these ongoing efforts and personal stories, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to 'Recovering Hope' every Wednesday at 6 PM EST on The Big Talker 106.7FM out of Wilmington, NC.
