Melissa Etheridge channels heartbreak

Foundation made of love –

Sept. 10, 2020 – “It was a long journey. In the end, there’s a small amount of peace knowing he’s not in pain anymore,” Etheridge said Thursday on “Today.” “Of course, we miss him. My wife and my other three children, we come together, and we know he’s there in spirit. So, we do what we love, and we love each other and come together. You just do it one day at a time.”

The singer established the Etheridge Foundation in June to support research into the causes of narcotics addiction.  The foundation will hold its initial fund-raiser on Oct. 11, noted “Today.”

“Unfortunately, there’s way too many of us,” lamented Etheridge. “This is an epidemic. We lose over 150,000 people a year to opioid addiction.”
