Andrea and Paul Haynes opened up about the devastating loss of their daughter, Esra, after she participated in the deadly “chroming” trend. During a sleepover, Esra inhaled aerosol fumes, resulting in cardiac arrest and severe brain damage. Despite days of hope, her family faced the unimaginable: saying goodbye.
Esra, a talented athlete with a bright future, inhaled deodorant at a sleepover, which caused cardiac arrest. Doctors discovered irreversible brain damage, and after eight days on life support, her parents had to make the excruciating decision to let her go. “Her heart was strong; her lungs were good,” Andrea shared, but it wasn’t enough. Paul described the pain of losing their “young soul.”
The Haynes family is now on a mission to educate others about the dangers of chroming. “We need to talk to our kids,” they emphasized, hoping to prevent more senseless tragedies. Their story serves as a poignant warning and a call for parents to have open, honest discussions with their children.
