Hayley, my 14 year old daughter, was always against drugs/alcohol and aspired to go to college to become a doctor. One evening as we returned from a trip to Wal-Mart we found American Idol paused on the DVR. Nothing seemed out of the ‘norm’ until we hollered for Hayley to come upstairs and she never replied or came. My fiancé went down to get her and found her hanging by a dog leash from the ventilation ducts in our utility room. I arrived around the corner as he was cutting the home-made noose from her neck after he had tried to pull it from her life-less body with no avail. Our first thoughts were ‘suicide’ because we were totally unaware this ‘game’ existed. After looking at the circumstances surrounding Hayley’s death such as: live television paused as though she was planning on returning to watch it, feet touching the ground/knees bent, no note (which if you knew her was abnormal), and not a single sign that she was depressed, we wondered what had really happened. Then we began hearing of other youths in our small community playing the ‘choking game’ and we realized that Hayley must have been playing the game too. She is sorely missed by everyone who knew her! Her smile would light up a room!! Forever and Always Hayley's Mom | 2008-01-30 |  Fatal | 13 year old Justin S. "Justin was our only child and he had everything.

He was the kindest, bravest, most loving person I've ever known. He loved playing baseball, soccer and playstation! He loved music (U2 and Greenday were his favorites). He was taking guitar lessons and loved it. He had many many friends. Everyone who knew Seaner loved him. Sean was a Yankee fan just like mom! I miss you Sean every day. Can't wait to be with you again. I love you Seaner. | 2005-09-04 | <  Fatal | 16 year old Jeffrey P. | 2005-08-28 |  Fatal | 14 year old Shawntae C.

Matthew was an outgoing boy who loved life, his family (esp. his baby sister), his job, and showed a sincere dedication to God. He was considering several options for his future, including the Air Force, business degree (wanted to manage the Dime Store he worked at) or Missionary Aviation. He wanted to be known as the "Candy Man" as his great grandpa was & had begun passing out candy to the young kids at church. He was sensitive and cared deeply. When we told him about a miscarried baby, he cried, wishing he had known I was pregnant so he could have prayed for the baby. He loved it when we came into the store to see him. He wore faith-centered rings, so others would ask him what they meant and he could share. As I write this it's almost 5 years since his death, and we still miss him daily, and all the "what could have beens". One of his brothers just recently wrote a song in memory of him. We keep him alive remembering the good times. We hope to keep others alive, sharing about the worst day of our lives - his death.

Loved playing basketball and baseball. We miss him every day! | 2001-11-05 |  Fatal | 12 year old Tyler S. Tyler was such an outgoing, vivacious kid. He never met anyone that he didn't like. He never slowed down! When he wasn't in school he was on his bike, his roller blades, or his skateboard. He was kind, generous and very affectionate. I miss hearing the door slam followed by him running through the house and hollering "Hey Mom!". Which was followed by him throwing himself at me and hugging me. He was my hero, my greatest admirer, and don\'t let anyone "mess" with mom! Each year his stocking is still stuffed, a place is set at the dinner table for him, both on Thanksgiving and Christmas. A new Christmas Tree ornament is purchased each year in his memory. These ornaments represent his brief life. The death of a child leaves a huge whole that the entire family must learn to navigate. This whole never heals, you just find different ways to work around it. He would be 20 now. I will never meet his first girlfriend, take prom pictures, attend his high school graduation or his wedding. I will never hold his children. | 2001-04-23 |  Fatal | 14 Jennifer C-T | 2001-04-01 |  Fatal | 14 year old Nicholas C. "He was 14, very curious, happy, sportive and clever. He played choking game from 6 months. His parents couldn't understand signs of the game, they never heard about this...French alert became some days after his death." | 2000-09-21 | Fatal | 14 year old Andrew B. Andrew has a twin sister, an older brother and a younger brother. He loved to play football and basketball and raced dirtbikes. He was always in to things when he was a toddler, I could write a book! But grew in to a sweet loving young man. I miss him so much, his smile and his voice just everything about him. | 2000-04-18 |  Fatal | 14 year old Jason L. | 1999-04-23 |  Fatal | 15 year old Dalton K.

He was one of the most popular members of his group. He was a respectful son who very rarely caused me any problems; however, during the last year of his life his behaviour changed, and he began staying out overnight on weekends, giving rise to my feeling of foreboding. I wouldn't say that Mike was a risk-taker, but he was usually up for suggestions of activities that he thought might be fun. Mike had a lot to live for and planned to be a mechanical engineer. Since that was what he wanted to do, I'm convinced he would have been successful in his career choice. | 1993-11-03 |  Fatal | 17 year old Nathan M. "Nathan was a very artistically and academically gifted young man, with a heart the size of Texas, and a dry sense of humor like his dad. He loved animals, especially cats. And he had a great love for all 3 of his brothers. He is forever missed and loved. " | 1992-08-18 | Fatal | 13 year old Scott M. Scott was a gentle sweet boy. He loved the Red Sox more than anything. He had many friends, had a paper route , did well in school, and loved God. His death was not only a personal, horrible loss to our family, but loss of a great human being..life can change forever in the blink of an eye. | 1991 | Fatal | 15 year old Shawn P. Shawn was a happy 15 year old who loved to fish. Until we learned of the cause of his death, nothing made any sense. We wish we had heard of this and knew the signs before we lost such a wonderful person to this terrible game. | 1986-05-01 |  Fatal | 16 year old Kevin R. Kevin was a twin. He was 16 years old, full of life. He loved nice clothes and always dressed to the nine. He loved his brothers and sisters, especailly the baby, Michelle, who was three when he died. There will always be a void in our lives without him. | 1978-09-11 |  Fatal | 12 year old Tom H. Tom was a sweet, bright, clever, funny, imaginative, talkative 12-year-old. He loved animals and nature, and he was curious about all sorts of things. He liked playing pranks and making people laugh. He had a menagerie of stuffed animals on his bed; his favorites were Winnie the Pooh and two dogs, Henry and Snoopy. Tom was the youngest of four children, the others quite a bit older. He participated in Boy Scouts and the youth group and handbell choir at church. He could hold his own in any adult conversation. He spent a lot of time outside, and often visited the neighbors, many of whom loved him as their own child. His death was a blow to everyone who knew him. | 1977-03-10 |

Concrete statistics for death and injury due to The Choking Game are currently non existent. We pride
ourselves on keeping a current and impeccably accurate database of reported Choking Game Victims.
However, hundreds of incidences go unreported. The tragic sudden death of a happy, healthy child is
sometimes misclassified as a suicide. And grief stricken families, not knowing any other possibility, grieve it
as such. These cases need to be documented proving the gravity of this issue and the need to implement
education.
