USA First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff

Dear First Gentleman Marlon Reis,
My daughter, Brianna, was drinking and had gotten pills from someone she worked
with. Percocet was her choice. The last Percocet she received was not Percocet at
all. She was the oldest of 5. She left behind her family which I'm helping to take care
of. Her son who is now 5, her husband, and her dogdaughter April who has recently
gone to be with her.
It is extremely hard every day! I hate this empty feeling of not having her here! The
medication doesn't help because this is deeper than anything medications can
touch.
I try to stay strong for my kids (I call my son in law my kid) and my grandson, but
there are days I just want to be with her! I know living children are ok. They are
alive. I don't know if she's ok and as a mother, that is extremely hard!
My mom struggles to understand because as a parent we want to 'fix it' and for her
she can't fix it.
My daughter had deeper things going on. She had an appointment to get some
help, but the appointment would be too late for her. This journey is a lonely journey
even if we have loved ones still living.
Would you assist us in finding a permanent location for a Drug Epidemic Memorial
Wall within our Capitol? We have created two memorial walls. One with photos and
one with names. These digital walls and albums update automatically. We would
also like the photos displayed in hard copy format. The wall of names can be
projected on a wall so parents can touch their loved one's name. We would like our
loved ones to be treated like victims. They were all victims of Purdue Pharma (an
American cartel) and many, many others. Now, they are victims of Chinese and the
Mexican Cartels.
