It always amazes me how far this Disease stretches across the DuBose line...Everything you're saying about Cade sounds like you're describing ME at each age you're discussing (right down to stealing but never violent, a shining star when in active Recovery, etc.). Praying for you! Know that you are not alone. Addiction really IS a family disease. Be strong, my family. Keep telling the story. One day we'll be free of this monster in our Bloodline forever!!! And THANK YOU for shining a light on the Dark Side of the Rehab System. Until seeing this, I had never even heard of a Rehab Broker and I've been through the system a few times across my lifetime. This is important knowledge! ✊🏾 💪🏾💙🙏🏾 (Alfred DuBose, Jr. Detroit, Mi)
I had never heard of rehab brokers! My oh my! My heart goes out to you parents! May God hold you and help you heal! My heart and prayers go out to you!
What a brave and amazing Mother and Father. God rest Cade's soul and prayers that this family will eventually get some justice and peace. XOX From Ireland
What an absolutely HANDSOME young man. What wonderful and caring parents. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for speaking on this subject. I know it cannot be easy. Love to all!
This pain is unbearable. I have lost my brother through addiction and my whole family is deep into the grieve. It is an experience on the border of insane. I am deeply sorry for your lost. RIP CADE
The broker information answered questions that I didn't know I had. Thank you for sharing your son's story with us. I am so sorry for your loss. I am praying for peace for you and your family. ❤
The broker part is so confusing, are they saying that someone from the treatment agency gave their son money and told him specifically to leave the treatment agency and go get high, then check back in again? Just so they could get a second 'bonus' for getting him to readmit? I can't seem to figure out if that's what they are saying or not.
@@Bughugger Cade was clean 35-40 days and they could not find him a halfway house in Cali that would take insurance/had an open room.. so this broker Western Union'd Cade money - got him an uber to the WU to get the $$ and back to a hotel that he had paid for a room at and told him to "get dirty" I have a rehab room for you tomorrow morning but you have to test dirty to get in... that time getting dirty killed him almost instantly and the broker disappeared into the wind.... AND the rehab facilities never reached out to me about insurance afterwwards, etc... just instant silence from Cali, We have Cades phone where all of the WU and text messages about getting dirty took place and their convo about it.
What wonderful parents. I’m so, so sorry for the loss of your beautiful son. There are some truly wicked people in the world. Thank you for bringing attention to them. RIP Cade. ❤
Like you said "if even one person is saved from your information to them then it is worth it", The sorrow of losing a child is beyond any pain (emotionally) that one can have and I am so sorry you lost Cade at such a young age. I think alot of the sadness is that these kids are dying so young with their whole life ahead of them. God bless you and your family as you move forward with your memories of Cade.
My head swiveled, when you mentioned that this occurred in Costa Mesa. I lived there for recent past 12.5 years. I apologize you, as parent to parent. It is certainly no place to be left destitute, beach or not. Albeit, the kindness of being sent your son’s lock of hair, tugs on my heart strings. You are doing something worthy and life changing, as his legacy. ❤
My deepest and sincerest condolences to you Mom and Dad. You were incredible parents to Cade. I watched this entire video sitting in my car in a parking lot. I took a day off from work to get some things done. I was riveted from the beginning. Mom, your voice and the way you.speak is full of love and sincerity. I have no doubt Cade knew he had the best Mom out there. Dad, the knowledge and dirty dealings of these broker situations most certainly have made you an expert on this topic. You are a necessary and important reference to other families who have lost loved ones. My heart is heavy thinking of Cade and how he left this earth. However I have no doubt that he is resting in peace. My prayers go out to you both and your family.
You can sense just how precious his mother is I hope one day she makes peace with it bc I can also sense how she's still grieving 5 yrs later. I hope she realizes that as close as they were it would hurt his heart to see her stuck in grief..
So sad to hear of your son. RIP dear Cade. Your son suffered no trauma. My nephew was shot in the head and killed at 27 years old, police say it was a drug deal gone wrong, by another young man close to his age...who is in prison now for life..
I am so very sorry for your loss. There are far too many families losing loved ones to the evil that is fentanyl. Rehab broker? I’ve never heard of this. It goes beyond despicable! Putting money ahead of human lives is pure evil. Our government has been way too disinterested in fighting this epidemic. I’m hopeful that the incoming administration will change that.
You have so much strength to be able to share this. Not only that but you also told his gf to break up with him. You truly have a big heart. I know he is proud of what you’re doing. Please know we are all grateful that you are spreading awareness.
What a sad story! I am so sorry for your loss, but you have became angels for other people, here on earth, through your pain and very sad loss! I give you hugs, even I know this doesn' t change anything!
What an amazing testimony to close your story!!! You reached the lives of other children through your strength and courage!! I’m so sorry you experienced this! God bless your beautiful hearts, Mom and Dad ❤
Same here except my son is in 3rd rehab. I am praying for God to touch his heart. This is an awful way to live. I pray for all who face addiction and/or mental health disorders and their families every night.
@chancedubose8334 thank you for sharing it. What I didn't mention is that I lost my stepson Sullivan (Sully) aged 19 from this on July 22nd 2019. I also know so many other people who have lost their lives to this. God Bless you all!
WHAT?! I’m a Court Appointed Special Advocate & this type of insurance & intermediaries, I outrageous! Let’s go after these felons. Dealing w\& charging w/o consequence? Geeeeezzzeeee!🤦♀️

This is so heartbreaking. My condolences to you and your family. I pray that God may help you in every way, for in Jesus Christ's Name, I ask and pray. Amen 🙏
so i was a heroin addict in uk. Mum and wife tried persuading me to go in to a £40k rehab for which mum needed a loan. It just seemed so callous to me, someone else enriching themselves on my illness. I declined, and found a cheaper route to sobriety, one less predatory. Addiction is a serious illness, requiring a serious medical response. These 30 day in/out rehabs are a literal racket, and insurance companies should wise up to it and save themselves a whole load of money by putting people in programs which have a higher likelihood of success, even if they look at first the more expensive option. They are not.
agree 100%.. INSURANCE companies will pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to "get clean" over and over and over BUT wont spend money to "keep people clean".. my insurance could have paid the same or less to simply continue paying and REGULATING half way houses, sober living, etc... Help the addict get and STAY clean and back on track would cost the insurance companies and LOT less that over and over and over into "30 day rehabs"... It should be treated like any other medical disease... AND those who are uninsured should be covered by their governments programs, taxes, SS, etc...
What amazing parents you are! Such a tragic and senseless death,and then to be totally taken advantage in every sense, the drugs alone are cunning and baffling, then the broker and various rehabs. The fact that you can tell your story to us is so precious. If anything, you really have helped save lives and opened eyes for so many others in addiction and hostage to addiction through being family and loved ones and friends. God bless you and your family ❤❤
This is breaking news, that addicts are targeted by predators at every turn. Drug dealers on one side, rehab head hunters on the other side. No collusion necessary, just greed.
I am so sorry 😞. My niece lived in Nocona (sp?)! I promise you…not everyone in California is a mess. I definitely understand why most of the country would think so! It’s like being trapped in a different country with our politics etc. I’ve heard of this kind of thing happening…especially down in Southern California. I’m proud to say that I worked for a company that was similar but clients were recently released from incarceration. Not funded through private insurance and definitely no paying for referrals, that’s horrible! Ughh. God Bless your family 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for all of this information!!!!! I had no clue about that there is freaking REAHUB BROKERS!!! IM SO THANKFUL FOR THIS (INFORMATION) VIDEO!!!!! THANK YOU. THANK YOU FROM A MOM OF AN 18YR OLD AND A 9YR OLD! TJANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!! 😊😌 AND I am sooooo sorry for your huge loss!😢😢😞 😔 ❤
This is a very important interview. I cannot even believe the corruption that is allowed to go on in this country. This makes me very angry. Thank you so much for sharing.
I know there is a lot of people who do not believe that doing the methadone clinical way is the same as being sober but it is … I have been an active addict for over 20 years… I was homeless too… However since I started the methadone journey I have not touched or taken any hard drugs again… methadone got me off the streets… I have an apartment… a good job… I am taking classes to move up in my career.. I bought a new car.. and I am clean and have no cravings for any kind of drug whatsoever… methadone saved my life and I will eventually start to ween off of the methadone soon too… the methadone way gets a lot of flack and I don’t know why because it saved my life and I know it can save someone else’s life too…
If used right, but it is a business also. I know people who are on it for 20 years now. It is a opioid, and another addictive drug. When they wanted to lower the dose was told no. Like I said , its a business.
I am super glad that you took the steps medically to kick your illicit drug use.. but I do agree with Bobbie below that it is a business and they business is not going to help you ween off... YOU will have to take the "bull by the horns" and do real work to get off the methadone also... Thank YOU for commenting and for taking the time to watch Cades story... Prayers for you dear... YOU CAN DO IT.....
Thank you… I know it’s a business but with any business in life you have your good and your bad business behavior… I am fortunate enough to have one that encourages.. supports… and has plenty of resources to help their clients ween off the medication… and this is the 3rd clinic I have tried.. you are correct about it being a business… my first one kept saying I was drinking too much water and I would supposedly fail the urine drug test… just to keep on phase 1 … and I knew I was not doing that and I challenged their results… but to no avail I left and went to another clinic… and again they would not tell you when you were supposed to phase up… and if you don’t know any better… then they will keep you on the lowest phase for as long as possible… I was on phase one for a year.. and I passed all the drug tests … NOW I am at a really good clinic who have employees who genuinely care and believe not only in you but also in your recovery too… so YES you are right it is a business… however it is just like any business or anything in life.. you have your good intentions and your bad intentions… that’s just LIFE.. and you can look around for the right one for you..
I am so sorry for you sweet mom. I understand that I'm dealing with it with my son Geno right now. He is in 3rd rehab although i don't really count the 2nd bc it was 3 days. I pray God Blesses you with Peace and love. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. What a beautiful son. God Bless you. I have definitely heard about this money making scheme and its truly despicable!!! I pray you get some Justice.
Mom, get your son onto Suboxone as soon as he is at least 3days off opiods!!!! When/if he relapses again, the drugs will have no effect! This will give him time to heal and seek counselling. 30day rehabs do not work. After one year on Suboxone, he can start to taper off slowly. "Methadone" clinics can provide Suboxone at a lower cost and most insurance will cover the cost. The 3 month injection has a higher success than daily doses. This comes from a 30 year addict that has been through all of this! Again, Suboxone,NOT methadone. You can still get high on opiods when taking methadone, most addicts still use. Suboxone saved my life, and my mom❤.
Another that started with marijuana. The gateway drug. I'm sorry the selfish people who want to get high fight so hard to deny this fact and keep it so accessible to the public without a prescription. I feel like so many of these young people would be alive today if they had not learned to cope with life by getting high. I am so sorry for your loss! Cade sounds like a wonderful human. I lost my best friend to fentanyl overdose. It's not fair and it sucks.
I remember our families hanging out growing up after softball games. I’ll never forget those times & hanging out with Cade. He was always so sweet, wild, goofy and fun to hang out with and I am so incredibly sorry. You are so strong for sharing your story! You’re an amazing momma Donna, Chance an amazing dad and I’m praying for answers, for yall, and sending your family all of the love 💕 I cannot believe they won’t have Narcan on campus. That just made my mouth drop
Thank you to Cade's family for sharing their story I know how precious life is as I'm sure they do also. When my daughter went to college I told her not to touch drugs because of the fentanyl crisis at the time. Philippians 4.7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
When is TPD gonna run out of stories, families, and victims, where and when does this end? This is insane $250k this family GAVE IT ALL and still LOST their son. It is just a shame, the system might not be able to stop every addict as they make their own choices, but we surely shouldn't allow medical loopholes where they also are exploited. Then they are twice victims: once to their problems and once to money grubbers.
We will reach episode 200 sometime in the next 6-8 weeks. That’s the number of illicit fentanyl deaths that happen in a single day, so running out of stories doesn’t look likely anytime soon 😞
I believe the numbers of deaths are MUCH HIGHER than what our government reports. I personally know of 21 people from all walks of life who have passed in the last 5 years. It is disgusting how money matters more than a life.
Just so people know a lot of these so called celebrities who promt recovery and say they will help anyone onto rehab are many are body brokers. A lot of youtubers are doing this
It is as if humans with addiction disorders don’t count to the police or most people. Many years ago my sister was given an overdose of heroine by a boyfriend. Yes she was an addict but she wanted to live and was trying to get help at that time. Her death and her boyfriend were never investigated by the police. We were told by the police what do you want us to investigate…she was addicted to heroine…she was going to die sooner or later.
Yes because people want to say that they "made the choice"... but most make that choice not fully understanding the risk of addiction or thinking "no way I would become addicted" but people can become physically addicted to opiates after just a simple medical procedure or even dental procedure.. and if getting a drug from a "friend" that happen to get from a "friend" that drug could easily come from a dealer with no way of telling the difference and that could be the only time that person ever uses also...
I had no idea about the rehab revolving door greed trap! It's so evil when ppl. as your son and others get used and abused that way! Unfortunately, I believe it's a sign of the times we are living in....alot of money worshipers instead of worshipers of God! We know of some Pastors that came and spoke at a church we were attending whose 16 year old daughter passed from fentynal overdose the very first time she had done any drugs! I'm so sorry for your precious son's passing , and will be praying for you and your family!
They are so hard to keep up with.. they all going by multiple names and we obviously hoped the FBI/Orange county would have been able to work with my insurance to track the money but these places are very sophisticated and do a good job of insulating themselves... its highly unlikely that most of the people working on the ground at the facility fully understand what was going on also..
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my daughter last year to fentanyl poisoning. She was 27. I have the desire to do the same as you and go to schools and talk to children about the dangers of all drugs. I heard you mention your group of moms and wanted to know how did you connect with them. I would love to get a group together in my area. Thank you and god bless you. Cade and Veronica are probably hanging out up there together!
There are many fentanyl poisoning related groups on Facebook. Fentanylfathers.org is one national organization focused specifically on bringing fentanyl awareness presentations to every high school and middle school in the country. I serve on the board. We also have a private Facebook group made up primarily of those who have shared their stories with us and those who wish to. That group has many awareness organizations represented and could be useful. If you'd like to join that group, email me (info@texas-pictures.com) and I can send you a link to join.
Donna and I have sons that are almost identical. My son, Zachary, was in school for welding, and was an addict. Donna and I had Mama’s Boys. My son KNEW I was always in his corner 24/7. I fought side-by-side with him his whole life as he battled anxiety, depression, ADHD, and autism. Zachary knew his Mom was the one person who was always there for him. Zachary went to rehab, stole, lied, and, eventually, took his own life on 9/5/24. Cade and Zachary are so missed 😭 I’m turning my fury into fuel, pain into purpose, and hurt into hope. It won’t bring Zachary back but if I can help others then it makes the effort worth it. Cade and Zack’s deaths were not in vain. I’m sorry to Cade’s parents for their unimaginable loss 💔
On the Pacific Coast, when a junkie says they need or want to 'get well', that means 'Get High'. Just so everyone knows. In fact, I've seen someone who was authentically trying to get clean get triggered to use when they heard that phrase. Similarly, I've heard junkies say that to each other when looking for drugs.
Yes 100% the term "get well" when spoken from one addict to another is almost always meaning "get well from being dope sick" .. but when an addict starts trying to find ways to beat the addiction by trying to go to recovery then you know they really are wanting to "heal"... it may take many times to accomplish this but recovery does happen and addiction can be beat...
@chancedubose8334 YESS, it can be beat. It isn't easy, and no one can do it for you, but Many, Many people have come out the other side alive and well. So it is possible.
I learned about drugs when they came to our jr school. Now I knew where to look. My mom turned me onto opioids and said don’t they make you feel funny. My mom had no idea the consequences. Gave me my first alcohol. This was the late 60’s 70’s
Sounds like my story minus the body broker. I come from a great family, never struggled for anything. Amazing family but sadly addiction bit me and it but me hard. Only for my mother is the reason im alive and I was too scared to buy on the streets
You best believe if they are doing THIS....they are most definitely paying folks to go into highschools and colleges and so on,.....to get them addicted while they're just babies. They are putting this in vapes and weed. It's even being folded in money and paper menu...I desperately tried to warn mine about it, because nobody else is gonna. I'm so grateful for VANCE . I pray they do something about it 🙏
Unbelievable that rehab support is not as above board as families might think. Of course they make money off addicts using their facilities but to actually solicit and pay them money to get high or find other addicts to admit to rehab so the broker and rehab center can make money is reprehensible behavior. Families can’t hardly trust the organizations that are supposedly out there to help. I hope this type of scamming is the exception and not the rule when it comes to addiction support. Condolences to Cade’s parents.
I’ve NEVER heard of a rehab broker. Absolutely wild but not surprising I suppose. People are disgusting. A lot of rehabs are just money grabs. They don’t actually care. Even with decent insurance I almost had to file for bankruptcy for a family member due to rehab bills. Interesting thing is they never mentioned a medication that he could take that would greatly help. We had to figure that out on our own.
I went to school with Cade growing up. He was one of the coolest and kindest souls I ever had the pleasure of knowing. RIP Cade
my best childhood friend. thank you so much for uploading this

This is breaking news, that addicts are targeted by predators at every turn. Drug dealers on one side, rehab head hunters on the other side. No collusion necessary, just greed.
Body brokers until they exhaust the insurance then to designed user areas to organ harvesting big business-Pharm-table
RIP CADE
I am so sorry 😞. My niece lived in Nocona (sp?)! I promise you…not everyone in California is a mess. I definitely understand why most of the country would think so! It’s like being trapped in a different country with our politics etc. I’ve heard of this kind of thing happening…especially down in Southern California. I’m proud to say that I worked for a company that was similar but clients were recently released from incarceration. Not funded through private insurance and definitely no paying for referrals, that’s horrible! Ughh. God Bless your family 🙏🏻
27:39 i kneeeewww you have a God- blessed heart🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️
14:44 manners go ever such a long way❤❤❤
Thank you so much for all of this information!!!!! I had no clue about that there is freaking REAHUB BROKERS!!! IM SO THANKFUL FOR THIS (INFORMATION) VIDEO!!!!! THANK YOU. THANK YOU FROM A MOM OF AN 18YR OLD AND A 9YR OLD! TJANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!! 😊😌 AND I am sooooo sorry for your huge loss!😢😢😞 😔 ❤
This is a very important interview. I cannot even believe the corruption that is allowed to go on in this country. This makes me very angry. Thank you so much for sharing.
Every boy’s a mama’s boy. I’ve never met one who isn’t. I’m sorry for your loss. I lost mine too 4-months ago. 😢
So sorry Denise... in our prayers
So very sorry for your loss as well ❤
I know there is a lot of people who do not believe that doing the methadone clinical way is the same as being sober but it is … I have been an active addict for over 20 years… I was homeless too… However since I started the methadone journey I have not touched or taken any hard drugs again… methadone got me off the streets… I have an apartment… a good job… I am taking classes to move up in my career.. I bought a new car.. and I am clean and have no cravings for any kind of drug whatsoever… methadone saved my life and I will eventually start to ween off of the methadone soon too… the methadone way gets a lot of flack and I don’t know why because it saved my life and I know it can save someone else’s life too…
If used right, but it is a business also. I know people who are on it for 20 years now. It is a opioid, and another addictive drug. When they wanted to lower the dose was told no. Like I said , its a business.
I am super glad that you took the steps medically to kick your illicit drug use.. but I do agree with Bobbie below that it is a business and they business is not going to help
you ween off... YOU will have to take the "bull by the horns" and do real work to get off the methadone also... Thank YOU for commenting and for taking the time to watch
Cades story... Prayers for you dear... YOU CAN DO IT.....
When you are ready you can wean off. I did it so I know you can. It's safer for you so I am happy for you. GL and no rush
Thank you… I know it’s a business but with any business in life you have your good and your bad business behavior… I am fortunate enough to have one that encourages.. supports… and has plenty of resources to help their clients ween off the medication… and this is the 3rd clinic I have tried.. you are correct about it being a business… my first one kept saying I was drinking too much water and I would supposedly fail the urine drug test… just to keep on phase 1 … and I knew I was not doing that and I challenged their results… but to no avail I left and went to another clinic… and again they would not tell you when you were supposed to phase up… and if you don’t know any better… then they will keep you on the lowest phase for as long as possible… I was on phase one for a year.. and I passed all the drug tests … NOW I am at a really good clinic who have employees who genuinely care and believe not only in you but also in your recovery too… so YES you are right it is a business… however it is just like any business or anything in life.. you have your good intentions and your bad intentions… that’s just LIFE.. and you can look around for the right one for you..
Sorry .. 😢 I didn’t reread and edit my response.. so it has a lot of run on sentences and bad English and grammar
Learn something new everyday people find a way to make money off everything
I am so sorry for you sweet mom. I understand that I'm dealing with it with my son Geno right now. He is in 3rd rehab although i don't really count the 2nd bc it was 3 days. I pray God Blesses you with Peace and love. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. What a beautiful son. God Bless you. I have definitely heard about this money making scheme and its truly despicable!!! I pray you get some Justice.
Mom, get your son onto Suboxone as soon as he is at least 3days off opiods!!!! When/if he relapses again, the drugs will have no effect! This will give him time to heal and seek counselling. 30day rehabs do not work. After one year on Suboxone, he can start to taper off slowly. "Methadone" clinics can provide Suboxone at a lower cost and most insurance will cover the cost. The 3 month injection has a higher success than daily doses. This comes from a 30 year addict that has been through all of this! Again, Suboxone,NOT methadone. You can still get high on opiods when taking methadone, most addicts still use. Suboxone saved my life, and my mom❤.
@@staceyloeffler6795 - Great advice thank you for sharing..
Another that started with marijuana. The gateway drug. I'm sorry the selfish people who want to get high fight so hard to deny this fact and keep it so accessible to the public without a prescription. I feel like so many of these young people would be alive today if they had not learned to cope with life by getting high.
I am so sorry for your loss! Cade sounds like a wonderful human.
I lost my best friend to fentanyl overdose. It's not fair and it sucks.
I remember our families hanging out growing up after softball games. I’ll never forget those times & hanging out with Cade. He was always so sweet, wild, goofy and fun to hang out with and I am so incredibly sorry. You are so strong for sharing your story! You’re an amazing momma Donna, Chance an amazing dad and I’m praying for answers, for yall, and sending your family all of the love 💕
I cannot believe they won’t have Narcan on campus. That just made my mouth drop
Thank you to Cade's family for sharing their story I know how precious life is as I'm sure they do also. When my daughter went to college I told her not to touch drugs because of the fentanyl crisis at the time.
Philippians 4.7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
When is TPD gonna run out of stories, families, and victims, where and when does this end? This is insane $250k this family GAVE IT ALL and still LOST their son. It is just a shame, the system might not be able to stop every addict as they make their own choices, but we surely shouldn't allow medical loopholes where they also are exploited. Then they are twice victims: once to their problems and once to money grubbers.
We will reach episode 200 sometime in the next 6-8 weeks. That’s the number of illicit fentanyl deaths that happen in a single day, so running out of stories doesn’t look likely anytime soon 😞
I believe the numbers of deaths are MUCH HIGHER than what our government reports. I personally know of 21 people from all walks of life who have passed in the last 5 years. It is disgusting how money matters more than a life.
The number probably is much higher.
@@TexasPictures I agree it is likely much higher..
Just so people know a lot of these so called celebrities who promt recovery and say they will help anyone onto rehab are many are body brokers.
A lot of youtubers are doing this
❤RIP❤
It is as if humans with addiction disorders don’t count to the police or most people. Many years ago my sister was given an overdose of heroine by a boyfriend. Yes she was an addict but she wanted to live and was trying to get help at that time. Her death and her boyfriend were never investigated by the police. We were told by the police what do you want us to investigate…she was addicted to heroine…she was going to die sooner or later.
Yes because people want to say that they "made the choice"... but most make that choice not fully understanding the risk of addiction or thinking "no way I would become addicted" but people can become physically addicted to opiates after just a simple medical procedure or even dental procedure.. and if getting a drug from a "friend" that happen to get from a "friend" that drug could easily come from a dealer with no way of telling the difference and that could be the only time that person ever uses also...
No one is smarter than drugs, absolutely no one.
I had no idea about the rehab revolving door greed trap! It's so evil when ppl. as your son and others get used and abused that way! Unfortunately, I believe it's a sign of the times we are living in....alot of money worshipers instead of worshipers of God! We know of some Pastors that came and spoke at a church we were attending whose 16 year old daughter passed from fentynal overdose the very first time she had done any drugs! I'm so sorry for your precious son's passing , and will be praying for you and your family!
I would love to share my nieces story.
You’re welcome to email us (info@texas-pictures.com)
They should publish the name of the facility.
They are so hard to keep up with.. they all going by multiple names and we obviously hoped the FBI/Orange county would have been able to work with my insurance to track the money
but these places are very sophisticated and do a good job of insulating themselves... its highly unlikely that most of the people working on the ground at the facility fully understand what was going on also..
The fact that there is even a term for situations like this is crazy to me. Rehab broker! 😳
I can so relate
I’m so sorry for your loss
Hire a private investigators
I work in BH and yes, this is absolutely true. Lots of brokers using addicts to recruit clients
I am so sorry for your loss 💔 Cade had so much life left in him. It’s not fair and it’s almost like he didn’t stand a chance.
Thank you for sharing! ❤ I had no idea about rehab brokers. That’s insane!
SAD!
35:30 absolutely!!!
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my daughter last year to fentanyl poisoning. She was 27. I have the desire to do the same as you and go to schools and talk to children about the dangers of all drugs. I heard you mention your group of moms and wanted to know how did you connect with them. I would love to get a group together in my area. Thank you and god bless you. Cade and Veronica are probably hanging out up there together!
There are many fentanyl poisoning related groups on Facebook. Fentanylfathers.org is one national organization focused specifically on bringing fentanyl awareness presentations to every high school and middle school in the country. I serve on the board.
We also have a private Facebook group made up primarily of those who have shared their stories with us and those who wish to. That group has many awareness organizations represented and could be useful. If you'd like to join that group, email me (info@texas-pictures.com) and I can send you a link to join.
32:03 God's timing...🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️
Donna and I have sons that are almost identical. My son, Zachary, was in school for welding, and was an addict. Donna and I had Mama’s Boys. My son KNEW I was always in his corner 24/7. I fought side-by-side with him his whole life as he battled anxiety, depression, ADHD, and autism. Zachary knew his Mom was the one person who was always there for him. Zachary went to rehab, stole, lied, and, eventually, took his own life on 9/5/24. Cade and Zachary are so missed 😭
I’m turning my fury into fuel, pain into purpose, and hurt into hope. It won’t bring Zachary back but if I can help others then it makes the effort worth it. Cade and Zack’s deaths were not in vain.
I’m sorry to Cade’s parents for their unimaginable loss 💔
On the Pacific Coast, when a junkie says they need or want to 'get well', that means 'Get High'. Just so everyone knows. In fact, I've seen someone who was authentically trying to get clean get triggered to use when they heard that phrase. Similarly, I've heard junkies say that to each other when looking for drugs.
Yes 100% the term "get well" when spoken from one addict to another is almost always meaning "get well from being dope sick" .. but when an addict starts trying to find
ways to beat the addiction by trying to go to recovery then you know they really are wanting to "heal"... it may take many times to accomplish this but recovery does happen
and addiction can be beat...
@chancedubose8334 YESS, it can be beat. It isn't easy, and no one can do it for you, but Many, Many people have come out the other side alive and well. So it is possible.
I've heard it all! My goodness.
I learned about drugs when they came to our jr school. Now I knew where to look. My mom turned me onto opioids and said don’t they make you feel funny. My mom had no idea the consequences. Gave me my first alcohol. This was the late 60’s 70’s
💞
This is the worse situation I’ve heard. Thats predatory.
Sounds like my story minus the body broker. I come from a great family, never struggled for anything. Amazing family but sadly addiction bit me and it but me hard.
Only for my mother is the reason im alive and I was too scared to buy on the streets
💜💜💜
You best believe if they are doing THIS....they are most definitely paying folks to go into highschools and colleges and so on,.....to get them addicted while they're just babies.
They are putting this in vapes and weed. It's even being folded in money and paper menu...I desperately tried to warn mine about it, because nobody else is gonna. I'm so grateful for VANCE . I pray they do something about it 🙏
Unbelievable that rehab support is not as above board as families might think. Of course they make money off addicts using their facilities but to actually solicit and pay them money to get high or find other addicts to admit to rehab so the broker and rehab center can make money is reprehensible behavior. Families can’t hardly trust the organizations that are supposedly out there to help. I hope this type of scamming is the exception and not the rule when it comes to addiction support. Condolences to Cade’s parents.
5:37 😊😊🥰😘
Big, big business. Look up Warren Boyd/Carrie Fisher lawsuit.
32:23 brokers??!!!! Evil/ Greed
Human Trafficking of the addict is a whole thing.... Obama started handing out money and now welcome to the revolving door of the opioid addict......
I’ve NEVER heard of a rehab broker. Absolutely wild but not surprising I suppose. People are disgusting. A lot of rehabs are just money grabs. They don’t actually care. Even with decent insurance I almost had to file for bankruptcy for a family member due to rehab bills. Interesting thing is they never mentioned a medication that he could take that would greatly help. We had to figure that out on our own.
