Dennis  and Tricia Patton, parents of Jeffery Patton who died as a result of 'the choking' game were asked and agreed to record a couple of segments for the Oprah Winfrey Show with their son Jeffrey’s best friend Mike Funk and Mike’s younger brother Greg Funk. The segments were taped in Chicago on September 23rd and they just learned that these segments will air on the “Oprah Show” this Friday, November 18th on WEWS, Channel 5, out of Cleveland at 4:00 pm EST. A couple of other stories will also be included on this show that deal with teens and their story will deal with the “Choking Game” that cost their son’s his life.
 
I know this show will reach millions..  I am so glad this is making it to a BIG audience and I am so proud of Dennis, Tricia, Mike and Greg for being able to do this show that will educate so many so soon after Jeffrey’s passing. God Bless You!!  Michele Mansfield  "quoted"..
 
 
On November 4, 2005 MaryJane Toms was notified by the Medical Examiner of the county where her daughter Jennifer died as a result of playing the 'choking game'  that she was going to petition the courts to over rule / change the 'cause of death'  on Jennifers death certificate from 'suicide to ACCIDENTAL!'  That is incredible news... the more families that come 'out' who have always questioned the way their child died.. IE... 'suicide' the more resources will be made available for the education and awareness of this killer.
 
 
Glenda, godmother and aunt to Shawntae Chavez who lost her life almost three months ago as a result of playing this 'game' shared some awesome news as well. Shawntae's death was ruled a 'suicide' and since then her family has been submitting information and media / medical  coverage on this 'game' to the Medical Examiner and have also had several meetings, to no avail with them. Recently, the family of Shawntae was notified that they were going to re open Shawntae's case and do a little more in depth investigation! Thanks be to God!
and Thank you God.. for holding our children.....close to you...
