My Tribute: Mark was the love of my life. He battled these demons for many many years. He had just done 30 days in Cali for rehab and came back in time for my birthday. He was so happy and healthy. 2 days after being home he was getting high again. 11 days after being home he was found dead of an over dose in my bedroom all by himself. I myself struggle with this disease and he is now my guardian angel. I will do this for him because I know that’s what he wants from me. I miss him everyday. I hope this epidemic will come to an end so no one else has to loose a child, husband, wife, brother, sister, significant other, friend or anyone. rip babe I love you.

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.
