You're amazing Nana! I have had custody of my 2 yr old grandbaby going on 2 yrs. She was born addicted to opioids and by the grace of God her mother is still with us. She sees her supervised once a week. Its not easy Im a single grandmother but I love this child and had to do what I had to do.
Good job to you! ❤
Bless your heart grandma, you’re doing a great job! Keep on being strong, it’s tough when you have to raise your grandchild alone. ❤
💕💕💕
God bless you for your kind heart.This baby needs you!
1050 people died of OD in Seattle and the surrounding area in 2023. It was 19 in 2017. Thank you for sharing your story and adopting your grand daughter.
We had 75 OD's in a 24 hour period in September 2023 in Yakima County.
May little Stella be blessed with no lingering effects from the in utero fentanyl addiction. RIP Cheyenne.
It is a great idea for parents to start education about this with the child as early as elementary school
These stories make it hard to thumbs up the video… because you know.. but it breaks my heart and I hate that people go through this loss.
I get it might feel weird. But hitting like is to spread the video and get it out into the algorithm. And inform others. You can think of that part.
I just remember that by thumbs up a video it ensures it pushes it into the algorithm.
Love the work behind the channel. Something needs to be done about it. I appreciate the parents for steping up and sharing there stories. RIP 😢❤
Thank you 🤗
My mom passed at 69 from fentanyl and carfentanil 😢I'm sorry for your loss.
I love hearing about the victims before the disease for them! They were living loving human beings with hopes and dreams
My husband passed away in 2015 of this drug before it was the epidemic it is, I feel helpless as I see more and more of my loved ones fall victim to this devil in disguise.
I pray for the comfort of all addicts and everyone who has to endure the pain of loving an addict❤❤❤❤
I’m so proud of you! Rest in peace Cheyenne such a beautiful girl with such a loving family and a gorgeous baby girl! Ty for sharing her story mama
So sad 😢😢 poor baby 😞😞😞 i hope she has a normal happy life and gets to thrive free from trauma and generational addiction.
I'm not judging....I know this is a disease that is very challenging to overcome. RIP Cheyenne
it's no longer, just a disease, of addiction. the drugs are being laced and not tested. no one stands a chance to any street drugs not tested and even tested can be a deadly dose. people young and old have been tricked into buying cheaper "prescription drugs" drugs that look identical to their normal pills and it's deadly. now, this baby will need to overcome addiction without being an active addict. rip, xoxo
No it's not a disease. A disease is like cancer, leukemia etc.Drugs are a choice.
We lost my Nephew 12.18.22 from fentanyl overdose. I know what you are going through. I'm so sorry for your loss. That poor baby i pray for her the most
I'm so sorry you lost your daughter. Stella is just beautiful and I'm sure you are an amazing mother to her and will raise her well. Prayers sent to you and your family 🙏🙏
God bless you and your family. I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers for sweet Stella.
Thanks for sharing your story.Blessings and strength to the family.
My deepest condolences. Thank you for sharing your story. Your message is heard loud and clear. 😢❤ I am 50 with a 12 and 15 yo daughter, and these documentaries have impacted me so much to hear from the loved ones who have lost someone or had to struggle with drug addiction. I began having conversations during the pandemic about fentanyl and will continue to have serious dialogue on a regular about all drug use including weed, alcohol and cigarettes which are "legal" drugs for ADULTS in most states and the fatal risks of fentanyl which is being laced in everything today. Kids are even experimenting with excess doses of aspirin and ibuprofen at school. Please continue to produce and publish these cases. They aren't just stories... These are people's lives.
Thank you for your comments.
Good momma , you're doing exactly what you are supposed to . Keep it up ❤❤
All stories from this channel influence me in one way or another. I am taking the time to thank you for your transparency in explaining the short life of your daughter. The way you spoke, the tone of your voice just triggered feelings deep inside. Especially since I worked in the Intensive Care Neonatal Nursery in a city. We didn't see many addicted infants, but if a premie or full term baby tested positive for certain drugs, there was protocol to follow.
Since I admire your honesty I must admit that I had a problem with a substance. This was back in the early 1980's. I won't go into further detail but I can say no baby was injured by me. I had problems when I left that job years later. Thanks again Grandmom. I know both of our messages are important. Love and peace to you and your family. ❤
My daughter was on heroin due to being prescribed pain pills. My daughter suffers from a hip condition and needs a hip replacement she was diagnosed when she was 18 months and started running. She has lived in pain her entire life. She still has not had a hip replacement because they want to wait as long as possible she's in her early thirties. This breaks my heart watching these videos but I do it to remember what my daughter went through. I watched her turn gray with shallow breathing multiple times seeing her almost dead. She has been sober for 2 years now after getting on methadone. She has been off methadone for over a year I am so proud of her. I hope everybody gets off and gets help from this drug it is horrible there is nothing worse.
That’s awesome! It’s hard so make sure she knows how proud you are. That means more than you realize
My sympathy ends when it comes to a mother despite carrying her own flesh and blood continues to use not thinking or giving a dang about the terrible effects (short term and long term) and the agonizing pain their baby will be when they are born IF they are even still alive. I just can't. Nothing makes me more angry then thinking about babies who's introduction to the world is fear and pain.... An innocent baby.... Come on now.... My heart goes out to her mother. Never easy losing a child....
I’m sure she cared , she would of had to of cared as all the hospital staff knew enough to no the baby needed help..
Absolutely. How anyone could do that to their own unborn baby is beyond me.
I understand but withdrawal makes people so violently ill that they feel like they need to use to stay alive. Tbh this is why we need better abortion access.
@@BackwoodsFilmsthe drugs have your brain unable to make responsible decisions.
Thank you for adpting this precious baby. She needs you.
My heart aches for all the parents, friends and community that have to deal with such a loss. May she and all others RIP!!! Blessings for y'all 🙏😇
💔❤️🩹❤️🔥
Thank you for sharing this.❤
Very well put together
✨️Stella✨️ is a beautiful name... reminds me of star... that baby is gonna be a star when she grows up💛💜🩵💙🧡🩷
I'm so sorry for your loss, you are a very brave and strong woman. God bless you for taking in and raising your granddaughter ❤
God bless you and my prayers for you and your husband and family. I can relate very much as I took custody of my great nephew at 4 months old and I still have him. He just turned 6. He was also born addicted to fentanyl and had to spend 3 weeks in the NICU to be weaned. By the grace of God, his birth mother, my niece is still alive but hasn't seen him since he was around 10 months. She's still in addiction and is back and forth in jail. I know the struggle of raising a child born addicted. I also sought after information on this and there is only the diagnosis and what the effects are when they're born but not any other information for as she said, it's still new. My great nephew (my son actually) is doing well now although it was a struggle the first 3 years with him. So glad Stella has you and your husband as these babies deserve a chance at life. I'm praying for laws to be established that would bring justice against those who particularly sell fentanyl laced drugs because they know it kills. They are murdering people and it should be a crime on the law books!
I first want to thank you for your courage and i want to express my deep sorrow for your great loss.
I lost my husband to a drug overdose. The horror of it all.
There are no words. None.
I'm just stumbling through my days
In a fog, dazed. Still in shock and its 10 years.
You stay in this nightmare till your (my) last breath.
Thank you for your comments. Very sorry for your loss.
I hope you show these to students in high school!! So powerful and most people do not know about this.
We’re working on that.
What a truly inspiring story!! Thank you for having the courage of aharing your atory. You are making a difference ❤ God Bless you
So sorry for your loss.

Your amazing thankyou for sharing 😢😢😢😢😢
Thank God for this channel to get the word out. !!!!
Prayers to your family 🙏🏼 May your beautiful daughter rip🥰
I’m sorry for the loss of your daughter 😢
My heart goes out to this mom. RIP Cheyenne♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing your story, I tell my young nephews to never smoke weed off the streets, only from a legal dispensary. Even weed is being laced with this fentanyl, is what I have watched online. So many states have legal dispensary's now, so if they want to smoke or eat gummies go to dispensary and buy it. I had them promise me that they wouldn't buy off the streets. Im sorry for your loss. 🙏💗🙏
I hear you. I’m so sorry for your loss😢
Appreciate you sharing and can’t begin to comprehend the ache with your loss. I want you to know…YOU are the REAL MOM. Condolences and prayers 🙏💕
So many young people adding from these drugs. It’s so sad. So sad for these young children, having children and then the grandparents raising their grandchildren because of the irresponsibility of the children having children. You are correct, it doesn’t matter your upbringing, your social economic background. Good parents or parents not being around. I have a brother who has been addicted to crack for so many years. He once was in College. The College expelled him for his actions on Campus. He did eventually marry & has 2 sons. One was born with feral alcohol syndrome and still suffers today at the age of 23. His other son was killed by a roommate in Colorado a few years ago as they were both under the influence of something. Either way, the shooter got away with murder of my nephew. NO PRISON TIME SERVED !! I don’t see that side of my family, they have moved to different states, I do miss them, but I am happy to say, my children are substance free & hopefully my Grandchildren will also be lucky enough to stay away from them as well. I pray for those addicted & for the parents & Grandparents with making tough decisions for all involved. Keep fighting the fight. There is Hope.
Praying for the family
Oh so young my heart is broken she didn’t even get to experience the good in life just the demon on her back, i pray that she’s at peace now.
Can’t watch when pregnant women have addicted babies! I’m a Court AppointedSpecial Advocate & can’t believe how many women should be sterilized so they don’t do this to innocents! Is just a “duh” moment. See this everyday & it’s the innocent children who pay.🤦♀️
Thank you for your services.The truth people need to understand isn't always what they want to hear,but needs to be acknowledged.Thank you.
You are an amazing lady ❤
It's heartbreaking to hear, but these stories are so important to tell. Thank you so much, mom, for choosing to love her and being her voice. And now for raising and protecting your grandbaby. Prayers and hugs 🙏🫂❤️
So sad that so many people think there are real laced percs…… who has been teaching these kids things the streets I see… parents need to better warn their kids about these fake fenty pills ! They aren’t real y’all! Stop taking them !!
God Bless you Grand-momma & Grand Poppa!
My heart breaks for you and your family. Cheyenne was a beautiful girl. Addiction is forever and very real!! The fight never ends…God Bless you, thank you for sharing your story. 🙏🏼🙏🏼💞💞🙏🏼🙏🏼
😢 I'm so sorry. They always say, "don't take it personally, it's not them but the disease " THEM, referring to the one who is in active addiction. Drug addiction is hard. And, it's even harder on the parents/spouse/family member that wants to help in any way. Than, when you bring another life into this world, all anyone who is not an addict wants to do is help, and they realize can't. If having a baby, new baby to this world doesn't compel him/her to quit. Get help for themselves......it's truly a painful.
I just want to say, pills WILL also have you addicted and loosing weight. They are very dangerous. @4:09
Sorry for your loss, we losing a whole generation…
🙏🏽💔🙏🏽
Do you know why Cheyenne needed to do drugs?
You amaze me, you and your husband and family are beyond the norm and you should be so very proud! I am praying that Stella does awesome in life and I am sure under your guidance and love that she will be just fine!❤
Sad to see, all these young people dying from drug overdoses. I think my daughter missed that stuff, because whe went to high school in the eighties. We only have .one life to live. It's very short ! Stay in school, and set goals for yourself. Running the streets, when u r young, doesnt get u anywhere. RIP! Blessings and prayers to the family
Shared.
I hope you are receiving help and love in the spiritual realm, Cheyenne, you went through a lot. You deserve to rest. Be at peace, love. ❤
RIP to a beautiful young lady!
I am very sorry to hear of the passing of your daughter. Cheyenne. My deepest condolences to you, your husband and the rest of the family. Ma'am, you've uttered the right words, the ones that everyone has in mind: "Someone is intentionally giving people fentanyl." Fentanyl is a poison, which sweeps through wherever it goes.
Heartbreaking..we all need to have honest talks with our kids, honestly no child is too young to start getting educated on the dangers of fentanyl and prescription pills on the street. As far as I'm concerned, any and all of the pills out there on the street market ARE laced at this point. It's a game of Russian Roulette with a full chamber, you can't just "take one little pill"
I'm so sad for Cheyenne's mom, daughter and family
So sad 😢
Its called trauma.
So sorry this happened to you and your family. You seem to be such a kind loving person. I hope the little girl grows up to be a healthy adult and that you will be blessed for your sacrifice.
I'm 54 and I still love SpongeBob
May God Continue to provide you with the peace that passes understanding...
I will share your daughters legacy.
Mir tut nur das Kind leid.
So many beautiful young people dying of drug overdoses it's horrendous and such a waste of life.
Please stop playing russian roulette with your life for the sake of a quick high its just not worth it.
Rest easy, Cheyenne🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️
💜💜💜💜
Where the heck was Cheyenne's father?
how about where’s Stella father??
Why aren’t men expected to step up?
Just heartbreaking all around. Side note - wish the *episode **#s** were highlighted* just below the title - as a reminder of all the damage done (rather than subscripted, below).
Interesting idea. We've also thought of adding episode #s to the description, near the top somewhere.
Please pray for my daughter Hollyann, her child was born at 24weeks and has made it to a yr. Old. She was born addicted and Hollyann is now in jail. DEFAC is holding it against me I feel like and has placed my granddaughter with a foster family. My past and present is clean, but I have adopted 2 other grandkids of mine and if I don't get the baby, I'll b forever heartbroken! I believe I will also lose my daughter Hollyann because she WON'T b able to deal with it and the drugs will b her go to for the pain of losing Bella, her precious daughter. GOD bless this little girl and comfort the grandparents.
Wow TPD your channel has grown! So happy for you and the stories being shared to hopefully help others.
Im sorry for your loss of Cheyenne😥 You seem like a wonderful mom❤️
Thank you for your comments. Yes, we're growing. We feel very fortunate to be reaching so many people with these important stories.
Tomorrow, September 29th, 2023, my daughter lost her life also to fentanyl 😢 they just don't realize how hard it is on families 😢 I'm so sorry for your loss ,
RIP Carrie Lynn 08/10/1981-09/29/2023 😭 We all love and miss you so much 😢
❤
💔
Where are our lawmakers where are our politicians why hasn't anyone step in already and do something about this crisis it just seems no one cares I'm starting to lose hope
What a sweet lady
You are so brave telling her, and your story. Thank Jesus you are there for that precious baby, just like you were for her Moma. I watch these stories and pray for my kids, and other kids who might be struggling. We just have to love them and pray. I don't doubt Cheyenne's life was ment for nothing, and that for her short time here God used her.... Who knows what that little girl of her's might do one day!
Where is Cheyenne from?
Kansas
@ilovegoodsax Kansas City, Missouri? Does anyone have her obituary?
As far as the source of her fentynal and where she was found, is there more information about her case?
Is there an FB page for her?
What a beautiful strong woman. My prayers and best for you and your family. Cheyenne will be at peace. Fentanyl...so dangerous just once... just one crumb and you're dead!
❤️🇵🇹
❤❤❤❤❤
Love
🩷🤗🩷 I’m so sorry 😢 RIP Cheyenne🪷🌞🪷
Just sad
At the outset, my heart crumbled seeing Cheyenne smiling with her daughter who is gazing into her eyes. I, too, would love to know what police are actually doing regarding the dealers peddling fentanyl. Surely, they're not invisible.
May Stella have the healthiest life and thrive in every way. ❤
Please don't have kids in active addiction
🙏🫶🏻
Defund the police they said… there’s not enough resources to solve this lie. Countries that produce these drugs or components of, should have embargo’s. This is too much to ignore.
MAY this BEAUTIFUL Young lady " Cheyenne. McComb❤
REST in peace with our Lord JESUS CHRIST in HEAVEN 😢
😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Condolences to the family and friends ❤❤❤❤❤❤
How is Stella's health?
So far so good
“Laced” means something’s been added.
So, laced-percocets mean LACED WITH FENTANYL
Correct, laced means "added", implying that fentanyl was added to a genuine Percocet, which is never the case. Counterfeit Percocets are manufactured illicitly and usually contain no oxycodone hydrochloride or acetaminophen, which are the ingredients found in genuine Percocets.
