Penn
Manage episode 287959206 series 2885661
Carol knew her son, Penn, had issues with alcohol but never imagined he had started using other substances until he passed away from an overdose in 2017. Penn grew up in a typical household in which he was an active member of the scouts, went camping with his family, and attended church. However, he was prone to panic attack and anxiety while in high school, and felt he had depression. He attended college and eventually worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant when Carol received a visit from the police that no parent ever wants to receive. Carol finds help with her grief by sharing her story through Compassionate Friends Non-Profit Organization for Grief on Facebook.
