    Police officer speaks out about daughterโ€™s toxic drug death

    More than 2,200 people died of drug toxicity in 2021, and 19 of those individuals were Delta residents.  This is a crisis that has touched many families, including that of a Delta Police officer.

    Former Sergeant Kevin Jones, who retired in February 2022, last saw his daughter Sara in November 2017. She died of an Opiate overdose in January 2018, at age 28 leaving behind two young children.  

    Looking back now, he describes the ordeal his family experienced as that of having a total loss of control. “As a police officer, I wasn’t prepared for how powerless I would feel in the face of what happened to Sara,” he says.

    In her early twenties Sara sought medical assistance for endometriosis – an often painful condition. Her doctors prescribed her Oxycontin to deal with the pain. But after five years of prescriptions, and a range of doctors, her access to the opioid was cut off. Over time, opioid users need higher doses of the drug, as their bodies become accustomed to it. By the time her prescriptions were stopped, Sgt. Jones describes her dosage as being high enough to kill a first time user. 

    “When her family doctor cut her off, Sara began doctor shopping to get access to painkillers, and increasingly feigned illness and made ER hospital visits in order to get new prescriptions." 

    After being cut off from legal access Sara started to access street drugs. "This was the beginning of the end,” says Sgt. Jones. Sara left school – where she’d been studying to become a Licensed Practical Nurse. She also left her husband. 

    Sara never admitted that she was addicted to opioids. “She’d say, my body needs them, but my mind doesn’t need them,” says Sgt. Jones, recounting a conversation with Sara. “She’d justify herself, saying she didn’t look like a crack addict.” He pauses, then adds, “She was a beautiful girl."

    "The drug just took over. It took over control of her life." 

    He says there were very limited resources he or the family could turn to, to get help for Sara. And he thinks even if Sara had been open to entering a full-time recovery program that it might have taken a year or more, to wean Sara off drugs, and build enough supports in place to deal with the inevitable cravings that would continue to happen. 

    He’s speaking out now to contribute to the conversation about opioid use, drug toxicity and deaths.  “We need to talk about this issue more. Families are suffering.”

    The City of Delta, Tsawwassen First Nation, Delta Police Department, Fraser Health Authority and Delta School District are organizing a Community Forum the evening of April 13, to talk about the opioid crisis and how to reduce the stigma surrounding substance use. There will be exhibitors, speakers talking about their lived experience, and an opportunity for questions and answers. The Forum will also include the opportunity to receive Nalaxone training. Please go to Eventbrite for more information and register to attend. (Note registration is optional, but helps organizers with planning). 

    Phil Kristofic's Story

    My name is Phil Kristofic. I've lived in delta for 38 years, I'm 41years old. For 23 of those years I was a daily opiate user. My addiction nearly destroyed me and I almost lost everything. Opiates ruled my life. It was the only thing I needed everyday to feel normal. I woke up thinking of when I would use or how I would get it and went to sleep thinking the same way.

    My life had become unmanageable. If I didn't have it I would become sick and couldn't work or have to leave early to get some. It became extremely difficult to hold down a steady job. I had disappointed so many people that cared about me so many times that the shame of my actions and my decisions almost ended my life. I felt alone and disconnected.

    In 2021 I hit my rock bottom. It was that moment and a moment of amazing compassion that made me realize I needed more help than I had asked for in the past. Friends and family helped me find supports available for me. I went to a withdrawal management center then went to treatment. I can honestly say it was the best decision of my life. During treatment I was brutally honest with myself and began to share my past, my feelings and my emotions. It was a tough road but a road totally worth taking.

    Today I'm proud to say I am almost 2 years clean and sober. I help run a shop in Tilbury and since Feb 2023 I've also been the peer coordinator for the Delta community action team. Today I use my experiences and the life I've led and lead to try and help others. To anyone struggling with substance use problems please reach out. The courage to share our experiences, our struggles and our success gives strength to ourselves and to others. Your story could help change lives.

    Jessica's Story

    My daughter, Jessica was a beautiful human being, both inside and out. She was a passionate high school teacher, partner, and mom. She was compassionate, kind, intelligent, and a champion of the underdog. She was recipient of the “UBC most promising teacher” award in 2012. Jessica was also a victim of assault and trauma in her early teens. In her late 20s, she began using substances to ease her emotional pain. Jessica was in recovery and 10 months sober before she passed away unexpectedly on April 22, 2018. She was only 34 years old. 

    Jessica’s journey with opioids began with her partner. They were both looking for an escape from their past traumas. As it so happened, a friend of theirs was being prescribed 800 mg of opioids per day, which he was using himself, sharing with his partner, Jessica and her partner, and selling the remainder on the street. Jessica and her partner also became parents during this time to a beautiful daughter. Now addicted to opioids and unable to take time away from their jobs in order to recover, when their friend’s physician stopped prescribing the opioids, Jessica and her partner began purchasing them illegally, and when they became either too expensive or unavailable, they turned to smoking heroin. 

    It was as if the stars were aligned, in a bad way, because around that time, fentanyl began creeping into the picture. While on the oxycontin, both Jessica and her partner were able to hold down their jobs because they knew how much they were ingesting, but when fentanyl came into the picture and they didn’t know the dose of opioids, things began to unravel. They began a roller coaster ride from addiction to recovery and back and forth until they both decided it would be better if they lived apart. Jessica’s partner moved back to be with family on the island where it was seamless and stigma free in receiving OAT (Opioid Agonist Therapy) in the form of suboxone from his family physician. For Jessica, it was a different story. 

    Living in a middle class community in South Delta as a teacher and a mom, Jessica suffered from self stigma and worried about stigma from others should they discover she was using opioids. She was too ashamed to confide in her family physician and so I spent months looking for treatment options to no avail. Contacts listed on the internet often proved to be a dead end. Because she had a child, she did not want to be away in a treatment facility. When she was finally able to disclose her struggles with her family physician, she was referred to an addictions specialist which also proved ineffective. 

    Because the addictions specialist worked out of the Surrey OAT clinic, in a community foreign to Jessica, I would need to drive her there with toddler in tow, where she waited in line for hours for a prescription in an environment that was not suited to her, never mind a toddler. There, she was also treated with judgement by staff. When Jessica received her prescription, she was forced to daily witnessed ingestion at her local pharmacy which was both humiliating and stigmatizing. Suffice it to say, where suboxone therapy worked wonders for her partner, it did not work for Jessica, and so, on the only other advice her physician could offer, we paid out of pocket for her to see a psychologist. 

    We had tried government appointed counsellors, but they neither gave her the compassion she needed nor the time. Jessica also began an exercising program — boxing, which worked wonders for her self esteem and coping. With regard to her psychologist, because of self stigma and concern she might lose her job if the truth about her opioid use disorder was disclosed — the psychologist was required to fill out an absence of leave from work form — Jessica felt she was only able to disclose that she had anxiety and failed to talk about her struggles with opioids. 

    More worry about stigma and too ashamed of herself to admit it. Still the psychologist visits did help and combined with exercise and family support, Jessica was able to remain sober for 10 months. She went back to work after 3 months of sobriety. On April 18th, Jessica suffered another trauma and it was then she relapsed and began using substances again to ease her pain. On April 22nd, 2018 she went dancing with her friends. That night she used opioids which, unbeknownst to her, were poisoned with fentanyl. Jessica died just before bedtime. The coroner’s report stated cause of death was fentanyl poisoning. 

    What I learned… When Jessica’s most recent trauma occurred and she relapsed, had she had access to a safe supply of the substance that helped her cope, she would still be parenting her sweet little girl, and teaching today. My first born daughter would still be in my life and in the lives of loved ones and friends. Safe supply means the person dependent on substances does not need to worry about being poisoned with fentanyl and it also reduces stigma attached to using illegal drugs. Even if there is no trauma, relapses happen in many scenarios, such as in alcohol abuse or even being on a strict diet. 

    People using substances such as food or alcohol for coping do not need to worry if they begin to regress, their consequences will end in imminent death. After Jessica passed, I was interviewed by the CBC about Jessica’s story in order to raise awareness. It was featured on the CBC Early Edition. As a teacher, and compassionate human being, Jessica would have wanted others to learn from her experience. Her story can be read online and on YouTube by searching for “Jessica’s Secret CBC.”
