Stopping the Opioid Epidemic

Stopping the Opioid Epidemic - 5:13

Prescription drug misuse is a serious problem in Michigan. Drug overdose deaths are on the rise across the state. Two types of prescription drugs are the leading cause of misuse - painkillers (opioids) and tranquilizers (benzodiazepines). Opioids include both illegal drugs, such as heroin, and prescription pain medicine. Common opioids used to treat pain include oxycodone, hydrocodone, morphine, methadone, and codeine. Synthetic opioids are contributing to the crisis, too.Synthetic opioids that are appearing across Michigan include fentanyl and carfentanil. These drugs are far more powerful and deadly than other opioids and are frequently mixed with heroin, often times without the user knowing. You can visit Michigan.gov/opioids for more information.

Serving Those with Cancerous Blood Disorders

Serving Those with Cancerous Blood Disorders - 5:16

It was 1952 in Detroit, and a small group of parents led by Sylvia and Harry Brown found themselves bonded by a common tragedy – each of them had lost a child to leukemia. Together, they vowed that no family would go through the struggles they had faced alone. Children’s Leukemia Foundation of Michigan was formed. In 1957, CLF expanded to serve adults when the Board of Directors realized that the whole family suffers when any member is diagnosed with blood cancer. Since then, CLF has grown into a state wide organization dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized support to any Michigan child, adult, or family affected by leukemia, lymphoma, or other blood related disorder. Throughdisease information & resources, emotional support, financial assistance and events & opportunities for fun, we currently help more than 3,200 families maintain their quality of life while dealing with leukemia, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease, multiple myeloma, aplastic anemia, Fanconi’s anemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, myeloproliferative disorders, Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia and many other diseases.
