Barbara’s son Keven showed signs of depression at a very young age, and though she did everything she could, she was forced to watch him slip into heroin addiction. After Keven’s death two years ago, Barbara is sharing more about her experience as a parent who lost their child to addiction and strives to help families do a better job in navigating these turbulent life circumstances.
