They call themselves “bereaved besties,” but it’s a bond born from heartbreak.
Amy Neville and Bridgette Norring never imagined their lives would intersect like this, until both of their teenage sons died after taking what they believed was a prescription pill they bought on Snapchat. Instead, it was a deadly dose of fentanyl.
Now, these two mothers are learning how to live with the unthinkable, while doing everything they can to make sure no other family has to. They’ve taken their grief to Washington, are fighting for new legislation, and are part of a lawsuit against Snapchat’s parent company.
Join this raw and honest conversation with two mothers who are speaking out, standing up, and working to make the digital world safer for your family.
