Jim and Jeanne Moser: Transforming Grief into a Mission Against Opioid Abuse

We just wanted to let as many people as we knew to stay away from it.
Imagine the shock of discovering your child's hidden battle with addiction only after it's too late. For Jim and Jeanne Moser, this nightmare became a reality when their 27-year-old son, Adam, passed away from a fentanyl overdose. The Mosers were blindsided by the news, having been completely unaware of Adam's struggle with opioids. But instead of being consumed by their grief, they chose to channel it into something powerful: advocacy.
In this heartfelt episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Jim and Jeanne share their poignant journey from loss to activism. They recount the devastating moment they learned of Adam's death and the subsequent realization that many families are similarly in the dark about the dangers lurking in their medicine cabinets.
Determined to prevent other parents from experiencing their pain, the Mosers founded 'Zero Left for the Medicine Cabinet', a program aimed at educating people about the risks of prescription drug abuse and the importance of proper medication disposal. Throughout the episode, Jim and Jeanne discuss the importance of open conversations about drug use and the critical need for awareness in preventing addiction.
Their story is a testament to the strength that can emerge from tragedy and serves as a rallying cry for better communication and education around prescription drugs. Whether you're a parent, a friend, or someone battling addiction, this episode offers valuable insights and a powerful message of hope.
