In Memory Of

Paul took an antibiotic (levofloxacin) in May of 2003 that he had a severe reaction to. Symptoms got progressively worse and he wasn't able to sleep. His mental, emotional and physical condition worsened and in the last few months he was calling on his close friends to stay on the phone with him through his toughest times, sometimes for hours during the middle of the night. He couldn't bear the pain any longer and felt that there was no one on Earth that could help him. At midday on Wednesday, March 3, 2004, he took his own life. Paul suffered many of the Adverse Reactions that are common for this class of Antibiotics. Paul was in mental agony (anxiety, panic) and in a great deal of pain all over his body. Paul was very talented musician who wrote music for children. Paul was a soft, gentle man who loved and lived a simple life until he was prescribed an antibiotic for a prostate infection. The incredible agony he put up with all alone eventually drove Paul to suicide. Paul had so much wisdom and insight that he shared with so many people. Lots of people considered him their mentor. He also had wonderful creative capacities in music and photography.

Paul would often write on the Antibiotics Adverse Reaction Forum
