Adam Szychowski 2/19/84 – 1/11/08

This site is dedicated to suicide prevention.  Adam Szychowski was my son.  On January 11, 2008, he left this world at his own hand. Adam was deeply loved.  He was a man of many talents. The circumstances of his death are the subject of another post on this site.  I miss him, and will miss him forever.

Each year at this time, I relive the sorrow and the trauma of losing him.  The sheriff’s visit to me in the middle of the night is the most traumatic moment of my life. It is my hope that by supporting the efforts of the brilliant researchers and educators at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, we will find ways to prevent the tragic and unnecessary loss of those we love.

These are videos of Adam moving into his apartment at the University of Connecticut. It was a very happy day.

  But I miss you. I miss your hands, your smile, your scent. I miss your jokes, your big burly hugs. I miss holding you. And I will miss you for the rest of my life.
