Life is to short to let this disease get you down

[Guest guest]

Greg,

Life is to short to let this disease get you down. I believe all things

come in time if you just live minute by minute hour by hour and day by day. I

was a very clumsy child and was often called names by my family. I had a sad

opinion of my self, then at the age of about 45 I was finally diagnose with CMT.

I was scared but also happy to have a name for what I had. I am very lucky

after being single for a long while a great man came into my life. I realize I

had to get happy with myself and then the right person came along to share my

life with.

I just have a good feeling you are gonna make it in New York, you have the

motivation and positive attitude so rely on those. My right hand began to have

problems and I developed a stiff spot in my palms and three fingers eventually

curled shut. I had a minor surgery and my hand opened up again. Now if I could

only quit the tremors.... I spill a lot of things but hey I still play the

piano.
