PHIL (VOICEOVER): I've heard of so many stories
of what drugs do to you.
You know, and now, I've seen it, firsthand.
I want to get my daughter back.
Come on in.
Hi.
I'm Maureen.
Hi, Maureen.
And this is your intervention.
[DEEP BREATH]
Chelan.
MAUREEN: It's OK, Phil.
PHIL: First thing I do is check news to make sure you're not
one of the people that have died from an overdose,
overnight in [INAUDIBLE].
I'm here because I love you, and don't want to lose you,
When you came to dinner on Saturday,
I didn't know how bad your addiction was.
It broke my heart to see you like you were.
I cannot make up for yesterday, but I
can make up for the future.
And I'm sorry, Chelan.
MAUREEN: So it's my job today, Chelan,
to ask you whether or not you're ready to accept
help for your addictions.
Yeah, I'm ready.
MAUREEN: Are you ready? - Totally.
Yes.
I'm more than ready.
MAUREEN: You're more than ready.
I'm more than ready.
Thank you.
(SOBBING) You're welcome.
(WHISPERS) Thank you for saying yes.
Bye, dad.
I love you.
Sure am.
Welcome to the [INAUDIBLE] Center.
Hi.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
CHELAN (VOICEOVER): I took off these foggy glasses,
and I can see, again.
I don't think I realized the beautiful world I lived in.
I took it all for granted.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SCREAMS]
I wake up and I'm happy and I'm joyful and I feel good
and I don't need substances.
WOMAN (VOICEOVER): When Chelan arrived,
she was quite desperate to have a different way of life.
She lost connection with who she was.
But I think she got reconnected with the real Chelan.
KEVIN (VOICEOVER): Well, this journey is just beginning.
