Woman's online journal of disorder paves way for new medical courses



Robert Paddock is a quiet man with a single mission in life - to tell the story of his late wife's struggle with chronic pain and raise awareness of her illness.

He also wants people to know her suicide wasn't meaningless. That she lives she on.

Robert describes Karen as his "best friend," and was devastated when she ultimately lost her battle with her daily, debilitating headaches and committed suicide on Aug. 7, 2013.

When Robert approached the newspaper, he wanted someone to write about his wife's suicide. An editor explained to him that newspapers don't usually report on suicide cases for fear of copycats. But Robert was humbly insistent.

"Her case is something different," Robert said.

And it was.

"My name is Karen Shettler Paddock. I am dead. I committed suicide on August 7, 2013, as I could no longer stand the excruciating headache caused by a Intracranial Hypotension, more commonly known as a Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Leaks. A condition that is more common that many think (for example Actor George Clooney had a CSF Leak and considered suicide), yet is so unknown that some doctors argue the condition does not even exist," reads the opening page of Karen's online journal.
