Death By Fentanyl Podcast Series | Rebecca Kiessling’s 2 Sons Killed Same Evening | Part II

#fentanyl #opioids #grief #fentanylpoisoning

In Episode 217, in Part II, I continue my discussion with Rebecca Kiessling about the fentanyl deaths of her two sons on the same evening on July 29, 2020.

Rebecca has endured incredible sorrow, not only from the deaths of Caleb, 20 and Kyler, 18 who both died on the same night from fentanyl, but she also had two miscarriages and the death of a special needs child who died at 33 days old.

She is very active in the fentanyl awareness community, attending the Lost Voices of Fentanyl Rally in Washington, DC each year.

She is also a pro-life lawyer who advocates for those who have been raped and later find themselves pregnant, a cause close to her heart, as she was conceived in rape.

She speaks around the world 50 to 75 times each year advocating for pregnant woman and also helps in the legal process so the fathers do not gain parental rights of the baby.

You can learn more about her work at https://www.RebeccaKiessling.com.

New Year New You 2024

In Episode 213, we look at the new year, what we have planned for ourselves and how to focus on the positive in our lives even though we are still grieving.

When the New Year approaches we tend to take stock of the last year and consider new goals that will serve us, especially when we are grieving.

In this episode, we journal through each area of our lives, emotional, physical, social, intellectual, spiritual, financial and more so we can look at what we truly want in our lives.

Then we get to start moving toward those goals.

And, yes, even when we are hurting. Even if it seems impossible.

Because if we don’t have something to look forward to, we will sink into the blues and I don’t want that for you.

Take the time to listen in and take the time to set a plan for 2024.

If you’d like to listen in on youtube, you can click here.

Additional Notes:

If you are having an especially difficult time emotionally, I recommend you speak with a specialist at a hotline near you. Here you will find hotlines all around the world. Trained counselors are there to listen, free of charge, to what’s going on with you. Take advantage of their great kindness. Vent with an objective individual. You don’t have to be ‘suicidal’ to call them, but if you are, that’s the best place to call. Don’t hesitate!

In the United States, you can call 988 from any place and they’ll connect you to the closest hotline.

For parents and teens, there is an amazing resource where you can email or text counselors for help at The Boys Town National Hotline! Outstanding assistance for your children and you – 800.448.3000 or text 20121.

Visit Julie Schiffman as she taps on Ring in the New Year. Follow her as she taps to release so many emotions.

Here are some meditation music to help you rest.

You can order your Bach’s Rescue Remedy from most health food stores, either in person or online. Remember, these do have alcohol in them.

I use the Rescue Remedy 20ml drops but they have spray and other versions which might work better for you. And…they also have products to calm pets, too.

Grab my free ebook, 21 Things You Need to Know About the Grieving Process, right here on my site.

Please share with anyone who may need to know this. Also subscribe, rate and review this podcast on whichever podcast platform you listened in.

Much love as you begin this new year. May it be filled with much happiness, peace, prosperity, great health and comfort.

xoxo
