Steve Grant on Good Grief with Cheryl Jones

Thankful for the opportunity to be on Good Grief with Cheryl Jones this evening. Thank you, Cheryl for the work that you do to help others with grief.

Steve Grant could never have imagined that both of his sons would die of accidental drug overdoses. Despite the differences in each of their lives, losing both of them to the opioid epidemic demanded that Steve struggle with his own choices in trying to help them. Taking an honest look at what he tried, what he did, and what experts say about how families respond led to a book, Don’t Forget Me, offering hope to all who struggle with a family member’s addiction. Along with the questions Steve needed to answer for himself, there was also the painful process of grief from the unimaginable; the loss of both his sons. As a man of action, grief inevitably led Steve to make use of the experience through his writing and through the foundation he founded to support other people struggling with the same difficulty. In small and large ways, Steve vowed to make a difference, using his business expertise and his personal experience to support young people and families affected by addiction.
