    My Minivan Became My Home | Emma's Recovery Story

    Send us Fan Mail Emma never imagined she'd lose everything. She was a mother of five, a children's counsellor, and the kind of parent driving a minivan to soccer practice. But after a prescription opioid introduced her to a feeling she couldn't escape, her life unraveled with shocking speed. Within months, heroin and fentanyl addiction had cost her career, her home, and nearly her relationship with her children.  Emma shares what it was like to live out of the same minivan she once used to take her children to school, suffer a stroke, continue using drugs while hospitalized, survive six weeks on life support, and ultimately find recovery through accountability, family support, and hope. This is a story about addiction, motherhood, resilience, and discovering that recovery is about much more than putting the drugs down.
