"Fight for Jarod" gets published

From Daily Standard Stories Celina, Ohio;

Jarod Bright was a 26 year old driven, charismatic, and genuine young man with so much to offer the world but was tragically removed from it by inhalants. Jarod was only a day away from graduating with a degree from ITT Technical institute when his fiance Kim Summers received a call noting his death due to inhalation abuse. "They found him lying on top of the can," Summers says. "He probably didn't know what hit him."

Since Jarod's passing 10 months ago, Kim has dedicated countless hours in researching, developing, and enlightening others on the terminal effects of abusing inhalants. Kim’s lost was something so unexpected and even undetectable to the closest loved ones. “More than 2.1 million children and adults in America experiment with some form of an inhalant each year.” Kim encourages open dialogue among parents, loved ones, and children in continuing consumer education through community advocacy.
"This feels 100 percent right," she explains. "I couldn't save Jarod but maybe I can help someone else down the road." To read the full story please click here.
