Mom Who Lost Her Son to Inhalants Now Reaching Out to Others

Via KNDU.com in Washington:

After the loss of her son Shade Shirley-Speedis to computer dusters in June, Annette Shirley is reaching out to the community to warn them about the dangers of inhalant abuse.

She remarked, "It's the new thing, they're starting at elementary [school]. If there's parents still out there that don't know what I didn't know, maybe they could save their son or daughters right now."

On Monday, November 29th she is helping to host a session on dangers of "huffing" and how to recognize signs that a child may be inhaling this type of substance.” The meeting will be held at the Yakama Tribal School from 6-8 pm.
