My Tribute: My daughter Jess was a wonderful daughter, a caring nurse. She had an ankle injury requiring four operations and still had bones growing up her leg.
She got addicted to pain pills which spread to heroin, crystal meth and died from using Fentanyl.
I struggle every day with losing her. A parent should not have to bury their child.
Hoping others learn to stay away from street drugs.

Excerpt: How I Stopped Blaming Myself for My Son’s Overdose DeathOctober 25, 2019 - 1:19 am
A son’s death and a mother’s love. This is the story of Josh Olt who overdosed on heroin and died at the age of 16. This is the story of the mother he left behind. It is not a story of “moving on,” or “getting over it.” For those of you who have lost someone you love to overdose, you know those things don’t happen. This is, instead, a story of disenfranchised grief, of self-blame, of what-ifs, of should-haves, and how to find a way to let go of that guilt.
