Someone once said that statistics are just numbers with the tears wiped away. But behind every number is a life, a family, and a story that matters. Last year in Canada, 7,146 people died from drug overdoses.

In this episode, Bob Campbell shares the story of his daughter, Kathleen, who died from an accidental overdose in 2019 at the age of 43. With honesty, love, and courage, Bob speaks about Kathleen’s life, the struggles she faced with addiction, and the profound grief that remains.

This conversation invites us to move beyond judgment and misunderstanding, and to see the humanity behind addiction and loss. Through Bob’s words, we come to know Kathleen not for the way she died, but for the remarkable person she was. This is a story about love, loss, and remembering the person behind the statistic.
