I am so sorry for the loss of your son, Kevin. Thank you for sharing his story. I too have loved ones battling paranoid schizophrenia thoughts. I have no idea really how to help them.

Dr Slocum and family, my heart goes out to you. 37 years ago I was a grad student in your class, and expecting my first child. I am so sorry for your pain and your loss. I want to thank you for sharing Kevin´s story in his obituary. It conveys your love and is a beautiful tribute to your beautiful child. Wishing you all peace and comfort. And I am postponing my work this morning to call my 2 children to tell them I love them. Deb Stewart
