(LtoR Samuel,Me,Elizabeth,Arthur and Gabriel...We miss him.) behavior into pre existing curriculam such as 'drug awareness' 'red ribbion week', etc. I wish I had known this game killed and continues to kill children. There have been five other deaths from this game since Gabriel's in May of 2005. Thank you Dr. Phil for seeing the urgency and importance of informing the public. Thank you so much Amy, Gaylin and Astra for sticking it out with us. Russell, oh you sweet man you! Thank you for being so kind to Samuel... I will always be grateful that it was this group of people who worked with us! Much fondness and, Still Loving All Four Of My Children, Sarah

I just finished watching this episode of Dr. Phil. What a shocking story! The whole time that I watched the show I kept thinking that Dr. Phil needed to tell Sarah not to lose both of her sons to this horrible epidemic! I applaud Sarah for bringing this to our attention. It would just be a shame to lose Samuel to this also. I'm not saying that he'd choke himself, but that by disconnecting with him, she is effectively losing this son also. Please Sarah, enjoy Samuel. As hard as it may be to do things with him that you used to also share with Gabriel, it is necessary to spend this time with Samuel. I hope that you went to the Spa that Dr Phil arranged for you because I feel that it is necessary that you make time to spend with Samuel & that he realizes that you love him. I'm not saying any of this to be accusatory or anything remotely like that, just that kids need reassurance & when a parent disconnects, they tend to feel it's their fault.
Now, to do my part. Dr. Phil is shown twice a day in my area. It will air again at 5pm tonight & I will make sure that both of my boys (11 & 16) are sitting in the living room with me to watch this show. I can only hope that neither one has heard of this let alone participated in it! So, we will be watching it tonight & discussing it afterwards. Thanks Sarah, for informing us of this 'game'!
My sincerest condolences to Sarah, your family, friends, & anyone else that has been touched by this & similar tragedies. Mitzy |

It is my hope that when this show airs, teachers, school administrators,doctors, medical examiners and coroners will start to take this seriously: I pray that teachers and school administrators especially, will start to warn and educate about this deadly game. It would be a small matter for them to include warning and educating about this thrill seeking
