         <description><![CDATA[<p>My first experience with fatal overdose was Dec 21/2016 when my 16 year old daughter's good friend, Beth, tragically passed from fentanyl overdose.  Even now, almost 10 years later, I type this with tears as Beth was such a bright star - always happy &amp; upbeat - lit up every room she entered.  Then I pause to reflect on all the clients (I work at Seven Oaks) that have been lost to toxic drugs - too many lives cut short.  RIP Beth and all those lost to overdoses.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Tom, it has been seven years since you left us.  I wish I could hear your voice, sit with you, and give you one more hug.</p><p>You were kind, thoughtful, and deeply loyal to the people you loved. You had such passion for martial arts, welding, and your guitar, and you gave your all to the things that mattered to you.</p><p>I don’t want to remember how you died, but for the person you were—your kindness, your passions, and the love you gave.</p><p>I often wonder what you would be like today and what you might be doing. Losing you changed me forever, but I have learned to carry your absence with me into the future.</p><p>Seven years later, you are in my thoughts constantly, and forever deeply loved.  I miss you more than words can say. </p><p>Until I see you again, my beautiful boy. ❤️</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>We miss you. I think you’d be really proud of us. We both quit using within a couple weeks of your death. Losing you saved us. I hope you died knowing you were loved, knowing we’d all miss you, knowing you were worth so much. You deserved more than every system that failed you at every step. Rest in peace bro. </p>]]></description>
