Tonya Doucette shares the story of her son, Trey Comeaux, a vibrant and loving 21-year-old from Sulphur, Louisiana, who tragically lost his life after unknowingly taking a pill laced with illicit fentanyl during Thanksgiving week in 2020. Trey’s journey reflects the painful reality of addiction that began in his early teens, as he battled substance use, cycles of recovery and relapse, and the challenges of finding effective treatment. Despite his struggles, Trey was known for his joyful spirit, deep love for his family, and a strong desire to overcome addiction—evidenced by his commitment to recovery and newfound faith. His devastating loss underscores the hidden dangers of counterfeit pills and fentanyl poisoning, while Tonya now honors his memory by advocating for awareness, education, and support for families through her nonprofit, working to prevent other families from experiencing the same tragedy.

Naloxone, the active ingredient in 4mg Narcan and higher dose 8mg Kloxxado, along with many generic versions, can reverse an opioid overdose if administered quickly enough. Some areas have Naloxone available for free. Google it.
