Cherish fell in love with Mitchell who was tall and handsome soon after they met. There was a special bond they shared right from the start of their relationship. They moved in and were expecting a baby when Mitchell's addiction became out of control. He tried rehab and was his old self but it didn't last long, and he died from an accidental overdose in January 2019 after five years together. Cherish tells her story, how she is coping, and how others living through this tragedy need to sometimes live their lives hour-by-hour, or even minute-by-minute.
