Seems like his mom asked this 2 years ago.. Click "see more" once on the page http://www.justanswer.com/mental-health/5l10e-son-professional-athlete-…
Says 2 years ago and she states he was 27.
James is 28 and wont be 29 until late December.
I don't know that ..that was posted by Sonya.
That's kinda odd of a Mom asking for random advice on the internet - for a someone of James caliber.
Could be though...who knows.
That's not too far from NP Beach - about 30 minutes or depending on traffic.
I don't know - could be.
Just strange though.

Is he 29 years old now?
I'm no Dr but I have years of experience dealing with the inattentive type disorder.
That is the way we should see it. No other riders has crashed that hard and so often, and many times he was not pushing the envelope doing something crazy. Maybe concussions has an affect as well, in racing he had many whereas he actually spend little time on race tracks, we cannot know how many concussions he has had on training tracks.
I am not trying to reduce the issue, but we should try to analyze the situation.

They then plead incompetence on complying with the procedural aspects of the rules, and ask for mercy.
Its a shame that his personal medical info has gotten out.
