On the exact one-year anniversary of her fiancé Kris’s death, Taylor sat with me to share her story.

Just twelve months earlier, she had said her goodnights, told Kris she loved him, and gone to sleep beside him. Hours later, she was on the floor trying desperately to bring him back. Kris had died of an overdose.

This episode is about grief in its rawest form. It is about loving an addict until their final breath, and mourning two lives at once: the life you have been forced to live without them, and the life you thought you would share together.

Trigger warning: This episode discusses substance abuse and graphic descriptions of an overdose.
