My son’s father, Tyler, passed away November 22nd, 2017. He was an off and on drug user for years but I truly thought he was getting better. We separated when our child was 1 but I always loved him. I was in total shock to learn his cause of death was from Fentanyl. I know he wasn’t out looking for it so it was laced in the drugs he was taking. I’m still devastated. This drug epidemic needs to stop. Baby G and I will always love you, Tyler.
