Blink | Jake Haendel's Story

3: Wayward Son


Listen Later

How does a man like Jake find himself with only six months to live? Friends and family give us a glimpse into Jake’s past—a childhood that seemed ordinary until everything changed. His descent started early, having been introduced to drugs in middle school and running the trade by high school. But when his mother is diagnosed with cancer, his world shatters, and drugs become his escape. What begins as a way to numb the pain soon pulls him into a high-stakes world of addiction, dealing, and danger. As his choices drag him deeper into a world of crime, the stage is set for the shocking events to come.

Content warning: Drug use/abuse, addiction, cancer and terminal illness, criminal activity, death & dying, suicidal ideation, emotional distress & mature content.
