“Where there is a high demand, there will be supply at a price. But the cost is much more than money. We pay with the lives of victims in this opioid affair, with the disturbing physical problems that persist long after the chemical dependency has been overcome, and with the deaths of our youths. The time to make changes is now. We as a nation cannot afford to wait. It is my hope that this book will give this country the push it needs in the right direction to end this terrible opioid crisis.”
