My daughter died on September 29th, 2023, fentanyl also.
and I'm going to say one thing. I did all that with my daughter, too. Nobody failed her she failed herself 😢
This is such a brave admission. My heart aches for you 💔
Thats true and I am sure not the easiest thing for you to say and even harder to have had to witness that. Sorry you had to go through that.
I'm sorry for your daughter. I think your daughter was victimized by people's malice.
Unscrupulous outlaws who despise the lives of others to take care of their own business.
I'm so sorry for your loss, may your daughter rest in peace.❤
I have to agree.
I have a son the same age as Jetaya.
When he was 17yo he got caught doing drugs.
And he had done it for a while.
I had the big ball rolling immediately. I reached every instance I could. But the hardest work I did with him. He had to piss in a cup randomly with me watching and he knew I would do it totally randomly.
But everything would have been in vain without him wanting to do his part and ready to co-operate.
He is ok now, has been ever since, but if it hadn't worked out this way I couldn't have said everyone else failed him. He would have failed himself.
You can't help a person who doesn't want help or is unable to accept it.
Sure I was lucky he was a minor back then and officially under my control. It would have been more complicated if he had been an adult.
And my sister is an alcoholic and the same goes for her. Nobody else failed her, she has been given chances and offered help many times, but she didn't take it and still won't. She hasn't been failed, she failed herself (and her children).
Too many parents having to share this same story of loss. I’m so sorry.
Hearing children say this same story about their partners
I'm so sorry for everyones losses,
My son passed away on 1/14/24. He was poisoned. He was not a drug user. I miss him. So sorry for your loss.
My condolences. 🕊️❤️🕊️
So very sorry for your loss❤
I pay my respects to your son and my heartfelt condolences for you and your family. I am truly sorry for your loss.
I’m so sorry. May God bless and comfort you. 🙏🏾💔
I am so very sorry f❤
She sounds a lot like my sisters. She was very gullible Her boyfriend gave her fentanyl for her migraine. At first she didn’t know it was fentanyl. She wasn’t a heavy user and thought she knew the difference between good and bad pills. She made it to 35. We lost her 3/1/24. Her name was Unique and that name fit her. I lost my dad and my uncle to overdose back in the day. Im very thankful my kids understand the dangers. I hope our family never has to experience this kind of loss again.
I am so sorry for your loss. Your daughters name is beautiful. Prayers for you.
Did the boyfriend get charged?
Wow this was only days ago so sorry 😢
😢
SORRY FOR LOSSES 😔 MAY ALL YOUR LOVE ONES RIP💜🙏🏽
My son was in the hospital for days and his neurologist when he told us that there was no hope for my son because his brain was gone, the neurologist said that our society is failing all these kids. And then he cried with us.
I’m so sorry
Did he make it?
@@shannh6724no. He died after we pulled his breathing tube out in the operating room. He was able to give organs, tissue and eyes. we are having this party March 16, so this Saturday.
@@goldieslacks. Thank you so much. I’m so sorry about your family member, as well.😢
😢😢
The hardest part about having kids is even if you tell them and show them time and time again that you are here for them and it’s safe to talk about ANYTHING , they just don’t. It’s just heart breaking 💔. It’s hard.
🙏🏻We thank Jetaya & her family organ donation is such a HEROIC gift that saves lives leaving a beautiful legacy.🕊
The way the mother speaks about her daughter and her faith is beyond inspiring. I want to let you know from experience. I am in recovery from a 25 year addiction and alcoholism run that almost killed me. I have also buried a brother from a fentanyl overdose and a sister from addiction and its life style. I say all that to tell you that nothing you did or didn’t do was gonna make your daughter wanna change. A person suffering with addiction and mental health issues has to want to change. Love n respect to you and your family. Never stop sharing your story. I also want to share that this is what makes fentanyl so dangerous in the fact that these kids today are being taken out before they even have a chance to hit rock bottom! There is no doubt in my mind that if I would have been using drugs in the present day I don’t know if I would’ve had the chance to get clean! Even though I used a lot of fentanyl in my addiction. When I used it I knew when I was using it and I was careful, at least as careful as an addict could be. I still overdose on multiple occasions. My point being is that it wasn’t being put in to all these different drugs like it is today! I truly hope that this family can find some clarity and understanding in this tragedy! I know me and my family are searching for ours!
Thank you for your comments. We also have a series of addiction recovery stories that you might find interesting. Here's a link to the playlist: From Addiction to Recovery - ua-cam.com/play/PLdCPA32W_p39Z8hi7xSIX3Fkqmhd7mRzj.html
You hit the nail on the head, they have to want to quit. No amount of court mandated recovery or forced rehabs will ever work. In fact it can endanger them because they might od when they first get out. Once they truly want to be done with the addiction, there is hope for them to quit.
@@TexasPictures thank you 🙏
Speaking from experience you are correct I've been 10 years clean and until I wanted to get clean and hit rock bottom nothing my parents could do was ever going to change my mind you have to want to get clean like they say you have to be sick and tired of being sick and tired
But how does a person with mental illness get help when the illness is not apparent to them?? Please help!
Jesus...I'm reading the comments and my heart breaks for each loss 😔🥺🥺💔💔💔🕊️🕊️🕊️
My heart goes out to you. I lost my son to fentanyl poisoning on 4-14-2022
hugs
❤
🙏🙏🙏
🙏🙏
i am so sorry
All Parents Educate your kids about fentanyl, Absolutely do not take a pill unless you see it physically coming from the pharmacy,So sorry for the loss of your daughter😢
They shouldn't be taking any pills that are not specifically prescribed for them or giving their medications to friends, etc. This is a huge problem and fairly preventable. Don't trust anybody who wants to give you a pill, friend or otherwise.
@@magnus1001 It’s so sad to see all the people dying from drug overdoses 🥲. I wish everyone would realize Fentanyl is in everything now and it’s not worth the risk to take a chance. RIP to all those that have lost their lives to drugs. 🕊️🌹🕊️🌹🕊️🌹🕊️🌹
You can't even trust that one of the other stories from this channel. One of the kids that died got pills from a pharmacy in Mexico I think. Also gave him pills laced with fentanyl.
What a STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL smile Miss Jetaya shared!! Thank you for choosing to speak out and educate any and all of us that will listen. Thank you for boldly sharing your faith. Thank you.

Your Jesus testimony that you had and shared with us just ripped me in half...I am in tears right now...I know that God is real and is watching every move that we make and that he truly cares for us all
Her mother does a beautiful job of telling this story. They sound like a loving family. It seems like Jetaya was a wayward child, but they didn't give up on her.
I lost my husband march 6 2020 do to fentanyl poisoning and the sad thing is that he was in a REHAB facility but a woman came in with the drugs…. So sorry for your lost and everyone in the comments for there lost 🙏❤️
My daughter lost her friend on her birthday 1/20/24. RIP to all that have fallen from this horrible disease of addiction.
I share the SAME birthday as your daughter, 1/20😊 My condolences to her for the loss of her friend🥺
I lost my daughter to fentanyl in 2019. She had a husband and 5 boys. We all miss her so much. Still crying 😢
I'm so sorry u lost your daughter to this dangerous drug, im a mother as well who lost my daughter on June 7,22 at age 17 1/2 to murder who also made mistakes with a beautiful smile n personality, I'm praying for your strength, this touched me because my daughter was known for her smile. Praying for your peace.
What a beautiful young woman with the disease of addiction! I’m sorry to the mother who spoke so eloquent about her sweet child and I’m sorry she is part of this terrible fent epidemic ❤from Poland 🇵🇱
This is heartbreaking
She was beautiful
What a sweet hearted mother - She is with you always have faith and one day you will reunite. I know 2 people who have died from fentanyl in the last 6 months and still no one talks about this. How do we get the media to talk about this more!!!!!!!! BLESS YOU
Email your local media … even be annoying about it.
Thank you for telling Jetaya’s story. She was a beautiful and thoughtful human being. She gave the gift of life to others, and no doubt she is looking out after your family. God bless your family.🥰🙏🏼
The hospital took great steps to make sure she was truly gone. Most hospitals get the ball rolling when you say organ donation. I appreciate that they took their time and made the family comfortable. So sorry for your loss.
This momma is special.
Her faith is strong & she was blessed with a 'knowing' that her daughter will be okay
I cried but through it I felt her & her family's love 💕
Indeed! It made me extremely sad when only one recipient of the organs wrote her back.
This was probably THE most - or one of the most, honest stories to date! There is something ...... special about this Mother and its not tangible, its innate I think. Lovely woman and I'm sorry she has to endure the unendurable, but she's doing a GREAT job at it!
Thank you so much. ❤ We all have to try and keep other families from going through this.❤
She speaks with the heart of Christ This isn’t the end for Taya her mother and father brother’s will see her in Heaven someday very soon when Jesus returns for all of us who believe in Him ❤
Indeed! It made me extremely sad when only one recipient of the organs wrote her back.
*Such a heartbreaking but yet beautiful story. I cry. I always cry when I watch these videos but I also SHARE IT WITH EVERYONE I KNOW!*
Thanks for sharing!! We also have a series of addiction recovery stories that you might find interesting. Here's a link to the playlist: From Addiction to Recovery - ua-cam.com/play/PLdCPA32W_p39Z8hi7xSIX3Fkqmhd7mRzj.html
You spoke about her with so much love. This is heartbreaking but Jetaya lives through you and her family. Thank you for being courageous and telling her story. I believe and receive the families and this channel are saving lives.
So sorry that you lost your beautiful daughter at such a young age. May those that she gave the ultimate gifts of life to, live long and healthy lives in her honor.
What A Beautiful Young Lady😭
Very sad that someone so young lost their life. It's great that you show these videos on UA-cam. Hopefully more young people will watch these videos and realize that being young doesn't make in invincible to drugs and their effects.
thank you for your comments.
I agree.
Such a beautiful girl. The devastation this drug is leaving on families and communities is too much. Prayers to this family and those who have lost their loved ones to this drug.
When she mentioned Jesus’ hand on her shoulder and him telling her to donate her daughters organs. Wow…. That’s so impactful, heartbreaking but beautiful. “We are at the right hand of God”… when I have had visions of our savior, I have always been holding his right hand, or on his right side. So sorry for your immeasurable loss.
Social Media Cyber Bullying probably.. low-key. There's more to this than meets the eye.. something went wrong here.. terribly wrong. She was hiding something..she wasn't telling something about what was happening to her..she was keeping a secret or some sort...it's just my opinionated observation..kids have a tendency to go into dark places without letting others know what's going on with them.🥺😞😮💨.
She said she was spiriling and had mental health issues and they tried everything but couldn't help her. She probably was addicted to drugs already
I wonder why her birth parents could not take care of her and she was adopted? 😢
She had the best parents in the world Her mother is an Angel bless her heart ! And all this family x
She might have been sexually abused and couldn't or didn't tell
🙏🏻So thankful for *Texas Pictures Documentaries* the bright lights of beautiful victims such as Jetaya will always shine. Mrs. Lucero you're an inspiration *prayers* & condolences.
Thank you for the courage to share what you went through as a family. I hope that the healing power of your faith sustains you through such immeasurable grief.
I live in southern Minnesota…a man has been selling heroin laced with fentanyl and it killed a young man. He had tons of convictions for selling drugs prior. He was given probation and a $200 fine. Makes me sick
We could share this story.
Mankato?
😡 makes me mad also. They need to be off the streets.
Did the drug dealer force the buyers to buy the drugs? I am not understanding
Because ppl don't force others to take drugs. Unfortunately arresting drug dealers won't stop ppl from using drugs or being addicted
My mother lost my sister to addiction years ago. This was way before treatment centers and help for people with addiction 😢. My mother and our family was never the same after that. I am sorry for your loss.
Watching this gave me chills. Rest In Heaven beautiful one🕊🕊
Question: If fentanyl overdose/ exposure is so deadly, HOW is it possible to donate organs to another individual? Fentanyl doesn't affect the quality of the organs? 9:21
Very good question!
What a beautiful this young woman gave! General medical knowledge ( not an expert just basic teacher knowledge)- My understanding is that opiates subdue the respiratory system. Narcan can reverse ( not always) the effects if administered quickly. Organ damage can happen over time during critical injury( brian swelling etc) and if they are oxygen starved etc but if ventilation happen quickly there is time to donate organs.
From my knowledge, fentanyl affects the brain. With advanced medicine practices, they run tests on the organs before they donate it.
😢😢So sorry for your loss. These are tough man, never get any easier to watch, I can't imagine the heartbreak these families go through. She was so beautiful, inside and out.
I’m so very sorry for your loss. I am a nurse and I give everyone narcan and educate them on how to use it. I agree that everyone needs to be educated on Fentanyl and how to administer Narcan. It is a crisis. So many young lives are being taken by this drug. Don’t take anything from anyone and almost everything you purchase now is laced with fentanyl. No drug is safe. Not even vapes. Narcan is starting to be offered for free at a lot of places now. Walgreens is one of them. I carry one in my purse and several in my car.
Naloxone is the active ingredient in Narcan and is also available in many generics as a nasal spray. In fact, the brand name Kloxxado delivers a higher dose of naloxone than Narcan (Kloxxado-8mg per dose, Narcan-4mg per dose). Naloxone can reverse an opioid overdose if administered quickly enough. Some areas have Naloxone available in the brand name Narcan or generic versions available for free.
It is important to recognize that Naloxone is the drug, Narcan is just a brand name. Whenever someone uses the word "Narcan" in place of "naloxone", they're devaluing all the other equally effective brand options and promoting a specific pharmaceutical company.
@@TexasPictures I was not devaluing the drug Naloxone. Im well aware of the other names and was stating that NARCAN is what’s available in my area at the moment and what I hand out to my patients. I always educate my patients that is Naloxone and the drugs mechanism along with the whole process of administering it.
I was in Walgreens last night and saw a stand for Narcan near the pharmacy, but these came along with a price tag of $47.. I couldn’t believe it.
Prayers and much love to u and your family. I know the heart break u speak of.My youngest grandson 23 died in his room in front of his mother. My heart is broken
Someday we will all be together again at heavens gate, sorry for your loss 😢
Amen
I am so sorry for your loss. May your beautiful daughter rest in peace. Thank you so much for sharing your story. My 50-year-old sister is taking pills from what I heard. I am sadly embracing the day that somebody calls me and tell me that she is gone. And there's nothing that I can do about it.
Thank you for having the courage to share her story. Sending you prayers.
Man I was an addict to this drug but Jesus brought me out.. my cousin died right in front of me I had to give him CPR but man .. I can't tell parents how bad I feel for them.. this drug isn't a drug anymore it's a weapon .. just know that God created the thing that comes against us so how much stronger is the creator then the created I love God and he has a plan!

Every story i watch I cry for hours, life is ever changing, thank-you for sharing
So sorry for your loss. So heartbreaking. Your courage to share her story with everyone, is so inspiring and amazing.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Thank you for educating others
I’d just like to take a moment and thank you for the amazing work you do not just by getting these heartbreaking stories out, but by bringing awareness to this horrible and tragic epidemic. Especially since our government doesn’t deem it necessary to bring more awareness SMH I truly hope your channel continues to grow so that it can reach a lot more people.
My heart goes out to this mother and family. I hope and pray she receives a reply from the other recipients and is able to meet up with them. I can only imagine the joy and happiness it would bring her to hear Jetaya’s heart beat.
Thank you for your comments
This is heartbreaking.
What a heart wrenching story.
This hurts my heart. Your daughter was a beautiful person. I'm so sorry for your loss. May she RIP
Thank you for sharing Jetaya's story. I'm very sorry for your loss, she seems like a really good person. Her smile did radiate, you can see it in the photos. I really do hope that you do get to have that reunion with everyone who received a second lease on life through her organs.
Thanks for sharing this story..Prayers to all the family ..
Thank you for bringing awareness to the Kansas City metro area. So many young children and losing their lives today and it’s scary very scary. I remember seeing this on the local news after her passing

I lost my 1st cousin at age 29 to fentanyl April 20 2023. Ppl overdosing on this drug is becoming very common it’s sad. RIP BRI
I'm so sorry for your loss, your faith is absolutely amazing & thank you for saving other people that is the ultimate gift. I believe your right we should all have naloxone. May God ease your pain.😢
Sharen u did all u could. Beautifully told. My condolences
To everyone.🕊️🌹🕊️
May she rest in God's loving arms🙏🏻❤️
So sorry for the loss of your daughter. Thank you so much for giving the gift of life to so many people. God bless you.
Thank you for sharing Jetaya's sad but beautiful story. Rest in Peace Jetaya🧸🕊
I really dislike when people say their child wasn’t perfect..I literally don’t know a person who is “perfect”
I think they're trying to find a respectful way to say they had a lot of issues of some sort.
Thank you for talking about the life and death of your daughter
Yes, she had a BEAUTIFUL smile. May you always be comforted by that warm and beautiful smile and the impact she had on others.
Wow Sharen! My heart hurts for what you and your family have gone through and are going through. I think of you and your daughter often…great documentary! God bless you and your family ❤🙏🏼 thank you for the awareness.
Thank you, Marjie. I appreciate you watching. I am trying to get awareness out to as many people as possible.
I don't have anyone pass from fentanyl but my heart goes out for this family I have friends I heard died from this drug I see the pictures and she does have a beautiful smile my condolences family ill be praying for you
This is heartbreaking. Rest in peace beautiful girl x
Thank you for sharing her story, so sorry for your loss. May God keep watching over you and your family 🙏🏼
What a blessing that her donation and ur loss was able to save so many lives. ❤ ur daughter was beautiful and i love the way u honored her in ur testimony. Sending love
I hope they play these for kids at high school
Some schools do. Many schools are hesitant to acknowledge the possibility of fentanyl reaching them.
My grandson passed 17 April 2023 from overdose of Fentanyl a couple of weeks before his 31st birthdayl. I speak to all, everyone on fentanyl and all drugs period.
This is so heartbreaking in so many ways. I pray for the healing of tis family❤ and the mother is so sweet and such a wonderful person. We thank you for this story and the education on what this can dangerous thing can cause.
This mother is incredibly strong ❤
I am terribly sorry for their loss 😢
Lost my lil brother to this Awful Drug ..he wasn't using ..6/14/2018..broke my heart into pieces 😢
God bless the family of this beautiful soul🕊😔🙏🏽
Sending my heartfelt condolences to mom, family and friends. She looks like she was the life of any gathering with that wonderful smile. May she rest in heaven and her memory be a blessing to others. 🙏🏽❤️
I feel you mumma, love from another mother who has lost a child regardless of how. God bless you. There are no words. I relived my babies tragic last moments, hearing you speak thank you for speaking how it feels , when i cannot voice it without bursting into tears anywhere, shops, car , home anywhere and everywhere i go im reminded of my beautiful son. Love from Australia.❤
I am soooooo sad for what happens to her and your family. I am crushed to heard about your pain and her struggles. As you said she was a beautiful girl, beautiful smile and a wonderful soul. Sadly this horrible horrific terrible thing happened to her. It is madness. So so so sorry.
This was heartbreaking. She gave so many another chance… they all should have been saying thank you even though it’ll never be enough. God bless you and continue to remember all those beautiful attributes she had and are long living ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love when I went to school and they had so many health care help and showed what drugs did to the body it scared me straight. These kids aren't scared of anything 😢
My older sister died from a drug overdose in 2007. I spoke to her the night before. My 18 year old niece found her dead. I can't even imagine what that was like. I'm very sorry, for the loss of your daughter. I wish I had the right words to say. She is a hero. She saved 5 people's lives. Hugs to you and your family.
My condolences to this family thanks for sharing your story
