Little Bit of Life

Eighteen Forever: Abigail’s Legacy Amid the Fentanyl Crisis


Listen Later

On May 14th, 2022, the Alvarez family's world was shattered. At just 18 years old, Abigail Alvarez was given a lethal dose of fentanyl in Texas. She lay unresponsive for over 11 hours, surrounded by individuals who chose not to call for help. That night, her parents felt something was wrong—an unshakable intuition that would lead her father, Adolph, to become a relentless seeker of truth and justice for his daughter.Three years later, on the anniversary of Abigail’s death, I sit down with Adolph Alvarez to reflect on the journey since that tragic day. Has justice been served? How does unimaginable grief ripple through a family? What does healing even look like after such a loss—and can it exist alongside purpose?We also examine the broader crisis: What steps is Texas taking to combat the fentanyl epidemic, and is it enough?This powerful conversation is one of pain, perseverance, and the enduring strength of a father’s love.Video Documentary Credit:  @TexasPictures  Special Guest: Adolph Alvarez
