(USGovernment-News.Com, October 21, 2016 ) Cincinnati, OH -- As reported by Time, the video of an Ohio father explaining to his eight year old son that his mother's death was likely caused by heroin overdose has gone viral after the father made the difficult decision to make the moment public. He said his decision was in hopes that his family's tragedy could help others, serving as a warning and a wake up call for the consequences of the heroin abuse epidemic. The video has been viewed more than 34 million times. As someone in recovery himself, Brenden Bickerstaff-Clark has answered both the praise and criticism he has since received by stating that this is the reality of substance abuse disorders.
Cincinnati Drug Rehab understands the heartbreak and devastation caused by tragic heroin overdoses. As a provider of heroin rehab in Cincinnati, the facility works tirelessly to prevent families from experiencing the kind of pain found in this viral video.
A representative of Cincinnati Drug Rehab comments, "While the video in question is absolutely heartbreaking, it does carry a very important message, especially for residents of Ohio. Heroin abuse has skyrocketed in our state and across the country, leading to preventable deaths and grief to families just like this one. Heroin and opioid abuse has led to children losing their mothers, fathers, grandparents, and siblings. Parents are losing their children, as well, to this treatable disorder. But stigmatization and lack of public access to life-saving rehabilitative treatment has only helped to bolster the current heroin abuse epidemic. We must work together to find a remedy to protect our families and communities."
