DEAR MICK, I WAS 18 WHEN I TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE BY POISONING MYSELF WITH CARBON MONOXIDE. WHAT I ENDED UP WITH WAS A PARKINSON'S LIKE SYNDROME. I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GETTING ANY WORSE, BUT I AM NOT GETTING ANY BETTER EITHER. I AM 26 NOW, AND I KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE TO LIVE WITH A NEUROLOGICAL MOVEMENT DISORDER. I ALSO KNOW OF A YOUNG WOMAN ON THE LIST WHO IS 28, BUT HAS HAD SYMPTOMS SINCE SHE WAS ABOUT YOUR SON'S AGE. I WILL ASK HER IF SHE WISHES TO CORRESPOND WITH HIM. ALL MY SYMPATHIES ARE WITH YOUR SON.
