In a heart-wrenching interview with Australian television host Ally Langdon,

the unimaginable pain of Andrea and Paul Haynes unfolded as they recounted the harrowing ordeal of having to make the devastating choice to let go of their beloved 13-year-old daughter, Esra Haynes.

Their tale is one of profound sorrow, as they grappled with the aftermath of a fateful sleepover that ended in tragedy.

Esra, a vibrant young athlete known for her determination and talent, had a promising future ahead. Her passion for BMX racing and her role as co-captain of the

Montrose Football Netball Club underscored her zest for life. However, on that fatal night of March 31,

Esra’s life took a tragic turn when she fell victim to the insidious allure of a dangerous trend sweeping through social media: chroming.

The sleepover, a routine gathering with friends, took a sinister turn when Esra, seeking a lethal high, indulged in the inhalation of aerosol deodorant.

What began as a seemingly innocuous act quickly spiraled into a nightmare as Esra suffered a cardiac arrest and irreversible brain damage.

For Andrea and Paul, the anguish of receiving the call that every parent dreads was compounded by the shock of discovering their daughter’s involvement in chroming—a perilous practice previously unknown to them.

Rushing to Esra’s side, they clung to hope as she fought for her life in the hospital, praying for a miracle that never came.
