A mother and father share their story of losing their 25-year-old son to fentanyl poisoning in this warning about the dangers of illicit fentanyl. Naloxone, the active ingredient in 4mg Narcan and higher dose 8mg Kloxxado, along with many generic versions, can reverse an opioid overdose if administered quickly enough. Some areas have Naloxone available for free. Google it.

Exactly! The more of these videos I watch, the more I think that there is nothing you can do to prevent this. Especially with laced pills, a tragedy like this is just one stupid teenage decision away. If they don't die immediately, the suffering is prolonged for the entire family until the person dies anyway. The percentage of people escaping drug addiction is just heartbreakingly low.

Mr. and Mrs. Mundaca, I am very, very sorry for your loss! I am a high school teacher and I believe that your story needs to be shared in the classroom. I work and teach at a high school in Los Angeles. Our student population is predominantly Hispanic. Last year our school staff was offered training in the use of NARCAN. I couldn't believe itI I was shocked by it. I first heard of fentanyl in 2019 when it took the life of professional baseball player Tyler Skaggs. But prior to that, it was a foreign word to me. However, now more than ever, this poison is killing so many of our teens and young adults. It's truly frightening! I am not a mother but as a high school teacher I am very concerned about this widespread endemic crushing our country. I am respectfully requesting your permission to share your story in the classroom. I am also interested in any online educational resources you may have knowledge. I, too, am a Christian and will be praying for you both and your family. Respectfully, Carla Saenz

God Bless you and may Jacob Rest in Peace. My son is actually struggling with an actual Fentanyl addiction. He is a believer and so am I. I can't understand why my son has done this intentionally. He is in rehab now but they said he doesn't seem very interested. I have been praying non stop. I wish I could make the choices and take the burden for my son Geno but as anyone reading this knows, it's up to him. My heart is breaking and I am so sorry for your loss but like you I do trust God and you will see him in Heaven. My deepest condolences. Xoxoxo

My question is: Nobody used Narcan just in the case that it was Fentanyl as it is so prevalent now? These days are not like experimenting with drugs back in the day. These days chances are Fentanyl is in every non prescription pill. This is a major crisis in America and needs to be treated as such. I'm so sorry for the murder of Jacob. God bless your family.

@TexasPictures 10 ай бұрын

Naloxone is the active ingredient in Narcan and is also available in many generics as a nasal spray. In fact, the brand name Kloxxado delivers a higher dose of naloxone than Narcan (Kloxxado-8mg per dose, Narcan-4mg per dose). Naloxone can reverse an opioid overdose if administered quickly enough. Some areas have Naloxone available in the brand name Narcan or generic versions available for free. It is important to recognize that Naloxone is the drug, Narcan is just a brand name. Whenever someone uses the word "Narcan" in place of "naloxone", they're devaluing all the other equally effective brand options and promoting a specific pharmaceutical company.

@lynnhexler-haan3357 5 ай бұрын

@MsAdventure531 Great slogan ! However, it takes a whole lot less than one pill bearing in mind that Fentanyl is 100 times stronger than morphine. Take a HB 10 pencil ( used by school pupils, artists & most every one else) sharpen said pencil, moisten, then gently dip into the illicit Fentanyl. The amount of Fentanyl on the pencil can & will kill a person. Then imagine how much a tablet might contain when a unadulterated amount is added to the preparation. It is worth noting that some are pure Fentanyl. Medical grade Fentanyl, used appropriately has proven invaluable beyon expectation. As a clinician I see the head count rising it's frightening.

I’m sorry for your loss. So many loved ones have died with this horrible drug. My mom’s youngest brother passed away in April, 2021 from fentanyl. We were the same age and actually grew up like brother and sister. It was a shock and just caused an overwhelming sense of sadness, guilt, anger and shock through out the family. We were struggling, all in our own ways, with his passing, but watching my grandma go through this was painful. He was her baby and till this day, she struggles. Our family definitely changed. He was such an amazing, loving human being. Had 3 small kids at the time. His life seemed to gave spiraled down very quickly about the last 3 years before he died. He seemed to be improving, even going on a camping trip 3 weeks before with the whole family where we got to be with him, since it was rare to see him at family events. I don’t just say this to say this, he truly was a great soul and so special and amazing and there will always be a missing piece to our family t without him here.

Another really sad and tragic story of a loved person who was literally poisoned! 🥺 I‘m really sorry for their loss, Jacob seemed to be a great person and he instantly was extremely sympathetic to me because he was a drummer like myself. The picture of him sitting behind the Gretsch Dum set -> 😍🙏 From all the things Jacob‘s parents said about him, he must have been a very talented and gifted person and that he was greatly loved by everyone. The only thing (and I said this many times before, I‘m really not a very religious person) I think helps Jacob‘s parents is the belief that he is now at a better place 🥺 Glen @Texas Pictures Documentaries: Thank you again for giving Jacob‘s parents a platform to tell his story and to deliver the so important message how dangerous Fentanyl Poisoning was, is and will be, so people need to be educated asap! 🙏 I wish you a nice and relaxing Sunday, enjoy your time with your family!
