Please pass this website on to the family of your nephew-- maybe there is some info here that will help them to help your nephew. http://www.stop-the-choking-game.com/en/home.asp

Thank you for that. I actually have heard of that phenomena, but do not think it was involved in this case. He has been in the hospital since Monday, and they just moved him to the county mental health facility, because he says that he will keeping trying until it works, and is apparently mad at his brothers for "ruining" it.
It is so sad to hear that someone so young feels life is so hopeless.
