Thank you Ricky, for sharing your story. After losing my Grandson, Travis to Fentanyl in 2021, our family began to advocate for making changes to stop the deaths and spreading awareness about Fentanyl and the opioid epidemic. Hearing your story of overcoming fentanyl and living in recovery, is heartwarming and I am so happy for you. It’s not an easy path you are on now,so stay strong and keep moving forward with your recovery and sharing your story. You are saving lives. ❤️ and
