No. in a word.

I didnt ever consider it seriously as i was always scared that something like this would happen. The idea of taking a drug that no one knows how its going to react, just seems a little "suicidal" if you like.

I CERTAINLY wont be taking part now, after my fears have actually happened to some people.

However - i understand whole heartedly the reason and need for clinical trials to go happen. And whilst i would never do it, i hope that other people dont back out of the trials as a result.

Reading the article, this really hit me:

Mr Wilson's sister-in-law Jo Brown said: "The only sign of life Ryan has shown in three days is when his brother William kissed him and a tear rolled down his cheek.

I think this sentence on its own really brings to light the disaster of the whole thing. One minute a healthy 21 yo whos never taken drugs, never smoked, and who had a whole like ahead of him. Doing the trials to earn the cash so he could take his mum on holiday. A few minutes later... his life in the balance.

Im not a religious person.. but my thoughts and prayers are with the people affected.
