Re: adoption question - to Stuart

April 4, 2002

Stuart and , Tina here. I also was adopted.

It's a long story, so I won't get into details now,

but in my case, I searched and found my natural

Father just 3 years ago, that is when I found out

have CMT type 1B. I had many problems my whole life

and always knew something was wrong with me, but did

not know what until I found the missing puzzle piece

(My Dad), and have since put it all together! My Dad

is one of 11 children and 6 of them have CMT and

they got it from their Dad (my Grandpa), whom found

out he had it after my Dad was Diagnosed! Anyhow,

since we all have the hearing loss, that's how we

knew for me to be checked as well. I think I'm gonna

write a book someday! LOL

has HOPES!

(Honest, Original, Positive, 'Experiential', Sharing)

By 'experiential' we mean we share from our CMT experiences

AND learn from others experience. We believe " Together

(We) Can Manage This - CMT! " And that's done right here at

!

Awareness Nibbles:

Approximately 70% of CMT is Type 1A.

Approximately 15% of CMT is Type X.

Did you know current world population

estimates suggests 2 out of every 10

children have CMT?
