"4 years sober today!

I was in active addiction for 11 years. After my brother died in 2015 I spiraled out of control and my addiction was worse than ever. I smoked M**h EVERY SINGLE DAY.

I quit my job, cut everybody off, isolated myself and stopped caring about my life.

All I wanted was to be high and got to the point where I could not function without it!

During that time I went through m**h psychosis and extreme paranoia.

I lived in darkness for MANY MANY YEARS.

My husband and I were in active addiction together and after 11 years we finally decided enough is enough! Although quitting was NOT EASY, we went through severe drug withdrawals as m**h was not the only drug we were doing! There were times I didn't want to live anymore, BUT there IS a light at the end of the tunnel! Just keep going and NEVER LOOK BACK! Recovery IS POSSIBLE!!

4 years sober today!!"

We are SO proud of you Stephane!

Help us show Marie Edmonds how happy we are that she’s FIVE YEARS SOBER today!!!

Congratulations, Marie!! God is so good!

Per FOX4 News Kansas City: Clay County deputies arrest man with enough fentanyl to kill thousands.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A 21-year-old Clay County man has been arrested for multiple drug trafficking charges after deputies found enough fentanyl to kill about two-thirds of the Kansas City, Missouri population in his car.

According to the Clay County Sheriff’s Department, Josiah J. Langston was arrested on Thursday, Aug. 15 near the 3900 block of North Skiles Avenue.

Deputies said they had been searching for Langston due to a previous drug trafficking warrant. However, when they approached Langston, he attempted to flee by ramming the patrol. He reportedly failed to escape and was quickly placed under arrest.

After he was in custody, investigators searched Langston’s car and found 1.5 pounds of powdered fentanyl and 0.4 pounds of m**hamphetamine. According to the Sheriff’s Department, two milligrams of fentanyl could be lethal, meaning this quantity could kill about 327,000 people.

Langston was charged with two counts of first-degree drug trafficking and one count of resisting arrest. This is in addition to his previous drug trafficking charge.

The investigation is ongoing and more charges, including federal charges, are possible.

Langston is being held at the Clay County Detention Center on a $450,000 bond.

Gods got you!
